A near perfect record that will have The Rapture,!!!, and every other dance punk band looking over their collective shoulders.
-
FilterWhere it seemed the individual songs on Danse Macabre filled out and stretched the seams of its pop confines, Wet From Birth proposes a more intricate and ambitious space. [#12, p.93]
-
UrbGrabs you from the opening seconds with a best-of-all-worlds combination of gritty, menacing music and witty, hilarious lyrics. [Nov 2004, p.99]
-
Wet From Birth is generally strongest when the beats-per-minute run high... but a few of the slower tracks showcase The Faint's growing way with melody.
-
The Faint is never less than snappy.
-
Their tracks are consistently both catchy and punky enough to make your lip sneer.
-
It's a clever, chic and defiantly underground record, alright, but it's guilty of trying too hard when clearly it doesn't need to.
