SickSense-Fools Tomorrow EP

 Last time I made a post on here, it was to talk about the single Fools Tomorrow by SickSense. Well now we finally have the long awaited second EP of the same title. It was released on June 11th, and I took the time today to give it a listen. 

I will say first off, I will always support this band in everything they do. That being said, this EP is still worth a listen. I never thought I would ever be reviewing a nu metal band, but this one always surprises me. Unfortunately, not every song on this EP was a hit for me, and that's okay. Because for those of you reading this, you may enjoy the EP as a whole. 

On a higher note, I know that everyone in the band worked very hard to produce this EP. Everything does come out of pocket. There were things I did enjoy such as the vocal work, especially on the song Erase, Rewind. I was a little skeptical at first of having a full acoustic song to end the hard hitting, heavy songs before it. But it did make for a nice final song, and shows the range this band has to offer. Hearing the vocal range that Vicky Psarakis has to offer is always welcome. She hits hard with her growls, but also has a softer tone as well. 

Overall, with there only being five songs, there is not much else to say. But I will give it 3 out of 5 stars. It was good and worth a listen. SickSense are definitely making their mark on the nu metal scene by shining a new light on it with their own twist. They are definitely a band you should keep an eye on, because I see more great things in the future.
