Us Amongst The Rest are a 4 piece from York and their debut album; ‘Follow the Truth’ was recorded at their local InnerSounds Studios. Slick musically and well written this is a hard rock themed guitar album that needs to be heard.
As an introduction this is a band that clearly knows their song craft, and has the sound feel of a heavily label backed album. Heavy guitar riffs and pinpoint vocals are abundant in tunes that run the full rock gamut of emotions - struggles, angst, love and fear.
Rise, Silver & Lead and Bring the Fuel are great tracks that will please any fans of Funeral for a Friend or like minded rockers.
It's not a slow burner, it's instantly a familiar and gloriously riff laden smorgasbord of Yorkshire glory. This band will not be wannabes for long, British rock should be in safe hands for some time to come.
