The glass bottom boat of the cultural press
“insidious”
The first song starts off sounding like the Van Pelt, but tighter and more rockin’. Noon In June is mostly instrumental. The third song goes from heavy to erratic, then back to normal. Throughout the album, Insidious use various things like overlapping vocals and driving guitar riffs. There are seven songs total that make a pretty well rounded record.
