Make It Blur

Artist: June
Album: Make It Blur
Label: Victory Records
Purchase: Smart Punk
Release Date: August 7th, 2007

Overall: 7.5
Music: 8.0
Lyrics: 6.5
Production: 8.5

On this their sophomore effort for Victory Records, June has broken new ground and redefined their sound. From the opening powerful pop-rocker “No Time for Sense” to the piano tinged single “I’d Lose Myself” it’s evident that this is a band coming into their own. Each song truly has it’s own unique identity, and the record as a whole merely doesn’t just bleed together and become forgettable. If their last record, If You Speak Any Faster was the foundation for their sound then Make It Blur makes for the sleek and sturdy walls. I can’t wait to hear how they build upon this.

Recommended if you like: mainstream alternative radio-rock without the stigma attached.
