Lions Lions Grounded
EP is the ultimate tease. Hell, to be honest, Lions Lions Grounded EP will probably piss you off
since it consists of a new song, an acoustic offering and a music video, which,
above all else, will leave you craving more because everything here is so damn
good. The title track shows flashes of a mature step that this young band is
capable of taking, not unlike Story of the Year’s” “Anthem of Our Dying Day,” combining
genuine call-and-responses moments with bombastic hooks; a sonic aesthetic that
fans of Lions Lions should surely be accustomed to by now. What follows is a
heartbreaking unplugged version of To
Carve Our Names’ highlight “the Right Steps,” as well as an iTunes
exclusive video of standout track “Milestones,” a clip that perfectly captures
the true destructive chaos of a Lions Lions live show. Since the Grounded EP is only two songs long, make
sure you have the repeat button firmly pressed.
