The Week That Was - The Week That Was


(Can't find actual cover art [British Version Cover])


If you took a first glance at this album cover you would think "Oh, another emo band!". But your thoughts are wrong.

The Week That Was as an album is more than meets the eye. Its a concept album about an imaginary crime thriller. And to add to that...its pretty good.

It has arty moments ("A Disclaimer") and some rock moments ("Learn to Learn"). They sound like a youth brit group combined with a little Arcade Fire. They may not be as good as Arcade Fire buts its far from bad.

I didn't believe the hype for this album. Now that I have experienced it first hand. It's is as good as most say. (Choice Cut: "Learn to Learn")

Rating: 82/100 (Original and bad ass. What else do you want from an album?)
