Some Sort of Threat - Not the End of the World


I bought this 7" without really knowing a great deal about it. I was listening to a lot of music that Specialist Subject was putting out at the time (by "a lot", I mean nearly all) and the description on the website made it sound like something I'd enjoy; I like acoustic punk-rock, and being on Specialist Subject it was a fairly safe bet.

It's a nice record, very enjoyable but not life-changing. Rory seems to quite enjoy singing fast tongue twisters (and does it well), and the whole feel is that of a more positive, early-ONSIND. Henman’s Year, The Only Boy Living in Newtown and Soaking Wet are all particularly memorable.
