4.0 out of 5 stars
Coming Up From The Deep End, June 12, 2005
This review is from: Oil & Water (Audio CD)
The Cardinal Sin, are at first glance, a band trying to cash in on Alkaline Trio's sound; the punk is dark and moody, the guitars jangle and crash and the bass hums while the drums are sparatic and heavy, hell, even the lead singer sounds like Matt Skiba, but the Sin have a sound that's more organic and heavier than what the casual listener might expect. "Where We Shine" is about the weakest song on this EP, but it's still great and it only gets better until the end, with "Quarter Life Crisis" standing out as the best. All in all, give the Cardinal Sin some time and they very well may surprise us with a more evolved disc of doom.
