Sick City Club - Sign Of The TimesSick City Club - Sign Of The Times

Sick City Club are the latest new band to come out of Birmingham and be hyped up for huge things, the band formed just in September 2007 after the two founding members Alex Marshall and Lucas Cole met on a music website bouncing song ideas off one another, the bands lineup was complete pretty quick when the other two members were met at university and soon joined the band.

The opening instrumental work of 'Sign Of The Times', is pretty outstanding, the riffs are pretty thick and the drumming is quite constant, Alex Marshalls vocals are something quite special, they are quite loud and clear and reach a sing a long peak during the epic chorus, overall the song has a really tight sound that works very well.

The b-side to the single is 'Anarchy' a song that tells a story of how moving to Birmingham from a small north east town can be exciting and open many opportunities to people whilst being quite dangerous at the same time. The song takes a totally different approach from the previous song and focuses more on a really distorted bass sound and does take a lot more effort to fully get into, but after a few listens you will either really like this song or really dislike it.

It won’t be long until Sick City Club burst out of the Birmingham underground scene and get in their van for big tours across the UK, the band have a great sound and this two track release is the start of something good for the Sick City Club.

3/5
