Tracklisting
- Palahniuk
- Freedom Fighters
- Beggars and Thieves
- Across the Ocean
With a very melodic alternative rock sound, the Ontario four-piece All We Have brings to mind the sounds of Run Kid Run, Anberlin, and Ace Troubleshooter. The four song offering Freedom Fighters is tight and polished, with crisp guitars and smooth vocals. With high harmonies and an overall youthful sound, I could see these guys entering the scene pretty well. “Beggars and Thieves” is a slower, sappy song, but it is not lacking energy or feeling, and it serves to add variety to the fun sound of the other tracks. Subtle gang vocals add “oh oh”s on most songs, making these tunes even bigger than they already were.
Overall: A nice set of songs from up north, Freedom Fighters EP is full of lush melodies and big choruses. Given the right opportunities, these alternative rockers could be in for the long run.
