americansignlanguage. - I Exist (2018) EN

From the combination of genres they were born - emotional punk-rockers from England: - americansignlanguage. Their new album is filled with thorough inside into the human being and with impossible to tame musical energy. This is "I Exist".

The album has its special theme. As the musicians say, it "explores escaping the grips of mental health, loss, falling back into depressive states and the realisation that you're never alone even when it feels like you are". On one hand, it is served in the poetic lyrics, on the other, the lyrics are shouted out, growled out or, in the best case, spoken out by the vocalist, the expressive Adam Hyman. And on the third hand, it is accompanied by lively and loud guitars, so he best parts of hip-hop, poetry and post-rock.

The best and the most poignant track on the album would be "Everything That Grows" with the narrative vocal telling a captivating story and with the shouted out, hopeful chorus. It's worth to mention the music layer, that would be quite alright on its own as a really well-written post-rock song.

"I Exist" costs 3 GBP.
