Killer
Kill's sound is hard to put a pin in — and its unpredictability is a
good thing. Its strengths are in a shifty, dynamic sound, especially
when the rhythm section of John Guest and Mason Macías play around with
tricky time signatures (as on the opening track, "Actress"), or when
frontman Cameron Taylor lets loose with a jagged, stuttering guitar riff
as on "Open Wide." Taylor's theatrical, histrionic vocals and lyrics
are a bit of an acquired taste, and a few of the tracks are fairly
ordinary. But when the songs manage to break away from standard
patterns, they frequently shine.
★★★ (out of 5 stars)
