Signals Screaming is Canadian rockers Inner Surge’s third album since their formation in 2001. Slotting in amongst the 21st century’s new wave of heavy bands, Inner Surge play a hefty mix of straight up rock, scathing punk and post-hardcore metal.
Very much Jawbox clashing with Boysetsfire, Inner Surge are certainly a lot more interesting than any similar British act I’ve ever heard, with a fire in the bellies that carries ragers like The Outcome off of the plastic and into your skull where it beats your brain repeatedly again the bone of your head space.
The album keeps up the steam across its eleven tracks but some of the songs begin to bleed into each other, though this is more a genre failing than the band’s. A big thrashing racket with genuinely thoughtful lyrics about the modern world—an unexpected treat.
