The semi–punk rockers Cloud Nothings have grown up. Their new album, Attack On Memory, sounds a bit more mature than the frantic, sing–song–y style of their self-titled 2011 effort. The opening track “No Future/No Past” features solemn rhythms that linger for ages with a “Creep”–esque quality. Throughout the album, the band’s true colors can’t help but peek out: nasally vocals, angry lyrics (“Feeling sick/But I don’t know why/Getting tired/Of living till I die”) and a fuzzy, electrifying sound. Check them out to get your punk fix.
