Album Review: VHS or Beta - Diamonds And Death

VHS or Beta - Diamonds And Death

Style: Dance Rock, indie Rock
Pros: A fun album
Cons: Not Much.
Overview: It feels like it's been a while since we last heard of VHS or Beta. And a lot has happened in the music world, especially in the Dance-Rock-Synth oriented style of music... with the rise of MGMT, Empire of the Sun, Foster the People and Friendly Fires just to name a few. So I was a bit worried that VHS or Beta's sound wouldn't be as enjoyable as it was back in the day. However, upon listening to Diamonds and Death, I did find it enjoyable. VHS or Beta manages to keep their unique style, but still push it forward a notch and make it worth listening to. And although this is not the most ground breaking album out there, every song on Diamonds and Death is worth a listen and you can listen to the album forward and back.
Top Songs: All
