Our Take

Ah, AS IT IS, the band that never fails to deliver an emotional punch right to the gut. Their latest album, "The Great Depression," is no exception. At first listen, you may be thinking, "What is this, another angsty emo record?" Well, yes and no.

Frontman Patty Walters' vocals are hauntingly powerful, channeling raw emotion and vulnerability in every word he sings. The band's instrumentation perfectly complements his voice, creating a sound that is both melancholic and anthemic.

The album delves into themes of mental health, society's obsession with perfection, and the struggle to find hope in a world that often feels bleak. Tracks like "The Fire, The Dark" and "The Stigma (Boys Don't Cry)" hit hard, hitting you right in the feels with their brutal honesty.

But don't let the heavy subject matter fool you - there are moments of sheer joy and defiance scattered throughout the record. "The End" is a defiant anthem, urging listeners to rise above their struggles and embrace their inner strength.

Overall, "The Great Depression" is a masterpiece of modern emo rock, a raw and unflinching look at the darker side of life. AS IT IS have once again proven themselves to be at the top of their game, and this album is sure to solidify their place in the music world for years to come.
