Riffy, grungy, raw, genuine; these are only some of the words that come to mind when trying to describe The Word Alive’s fourth studio album, Dark Matter. But they fail to do justice to what may very well be their strongest release to date.
If you’re looking for socially conscious lyrics with a quirky pop punk sound, The Spook School are here to deliver just that. The small Scottish band have been spreading the word about fluid gender and sexuality since their start in 2012, which you can read more about here.
