The infectious yet sporadic claps just pull you in and before you even notice, you’re clapping along each and every time. Latest single (my personal favorite on the whole album), “Bad Bite” is perhaps one of the most thrilling and energetic tracks on the entire album. First single and opening track “The Knife, the Knife, the Knife” is a slow burn for sure, but not without a particular surge of energy that these boys inject into each one of their songs. The songs on Give One Take One kind of go up and down like a rollercoaster, meaning that it’s almost a perfect playout of slow song, fast song, beck and forth from beginning to end. So, while the set of ten songs may not ooze without issue into one another, they are still arranged in a way that makes perfect sense. Tracks can have an abrupt ending or use a random set of tones and sounds to begin the next. What I do mean is that unlike some other genres, the songs on a record like this don’t always seamlessly transition from one to the next. Now, I don’t mean that on an album like Give One Take One there is no cohesive sense of direction, because that is one thing for sure the boys have put into effect more than any prior release.

In a sense it’s a bunch of ‘noise’ so almost any order of a set of songs would work. The great thing about something like noise rock is that the necessity of ‘flow’ (or lack there of) is in the genre tag itself. The smell of Spring is in the air, and many a tushy is ready to move and groove after a Winter’s hibernation and these are nothing less than the perfect tunes to accomplish such joyful insanity. Releasing an ep back in September, entitled Love Is Ain’t Dead and the promise of more music not far off, this record comes at the perfect time. So, what do we throw on the ol’ turntable? What bang and boom will make us twist and shake in pure, relentless joy? And from the moment Josh Scogin wails a bellowed ‘This being the duo of Scogin and drummer Michael McClellan’s third full-length, you can tell within mere moments the boys brought a much more concise ruckus.

But the series of possibly maniacal events that are about to take place need a soundtrack.

The clock strikes five at the end of the day and it’s as if we’ve broken free of all our metaphorical shackles and chains and let loose like a wild animal to wreak whatever havoc might satiate our bloodlust for fun. A pretty damn sweet thought for those of us who work the typical Monday to Friday J-O-B. It’s time to grab your gal or guy, grab a beer, and dance like Monday will never come again. Alright lads and ladies! It’s the end of the work week.
