Imperial's debut EP finds them offering a sound that isn't exactly original -- heavy but occasionally beautiful guitars, nimble and unexpected rhythmic changeups, lots and lots of hoarse screaming with an occasional descent into full-on Cookie Monster belching -- but is certainly fully developed and well constructed. The problem is, first of all, that it's getting harder and harder to listen to this kind of band without thinking about how utterly dated they're going to sound within about five or ten years, and second of all, the lyrics are beyond banal. "Your heart is black/So rest your head/Because tomorrow/We'll be your death" is one typically cringe-and-giggle-inducing passage; "We will steal your smile/No more lies" is another. (Song titles like "Washed Upon a Nameless Shore" and "In Ashes I Leave" can be considered fair warning.) Luckily, the lyrics are completely incomprehensible throughout the album, so you're free to just wallow in the undifferentiated, yowling noise and admire those nimbly crunching guitars. For faithful scenesters only. ~ Rick Anderson
