The Plight - Wind of Osiris

Reviewed by Phil Boardman

“Winds Of Osiris” is the debut full-length album from Leeds' The Plight. After the first listen I wasn’t too sure about the album with growling hardcore vocals making it hard to listen to, but on a second listen it soon started to grow on me. The guitar riffs throughout the album have a classic rock sound and are extremely catchy, and the instrumental “Lifted to the Sun” is a nice change after listening to the fast paced riffs from the rest of the album. Another album highlight for me would be the song "Tied To The Tracks" opening with a classic sounding guitar riff reminding me of Audioslave, which then blends well with energetic drum beat, also the vocals in this song become a lot more distinguished in comparison, making it easier to listen to than other songs on the album. If you’re in to bands such as Gallows and Cancer Bats these are definitely worth a listen to.
