"Michael Buckley’s quick and vigorous drumming is an aspect that stands out."
Scattered throughout this record, Michael Buckley’s quick and vigorous drumming is an aspect that stands out in contrast with his clean vocals, giving a strangely uplifting vibe.
As the tracks progress the heavy vocals become grittier and the breakdowns become rougher, rounding out the album. Splitting the album in half, Mountain’s simple instrumentation and quick composition of keys, drum and raspy vocals gives the album another dimension. While Stitched The Same opens drum-heavy, a softly sung and melodic verse shines through, expressing an infatuation with the idea of finding what they were metaphorically looking for.
