A mixture of style is presented here on the bands first 7″ all of which fall into some sort of indie niche. First track A Headache is notably the shortest and loudest track on the ep, opening on a set of controlled palm muted chords before bursting into a bellowed chorus with lyrics presenting the struggle of a bands search for fame.

Big Breath features many of the aspects found on A Headache, familiar picked palm muted chords, a bellowing vocal and a twinkling xylophone only executed in a much more upbeat and poppy manner. The curve ball is thrown when the song drops all of this as it disintegrates into a chorus made primarily of a frantically strummed pattern of octaves before returning to it’s pop beginnings.

Closer Bloooooood (hah! copied and pasted from itunes for maximum accuracy), continues on this bounding path, a jaunty keyboard number that takes all of the musical aspects found in the first two songs and combines them into a happy go lucky pop song that has a tendency to get nasty every so often.

Given that this 7″ is the bands first release it feels more like a demo than a full 7″. The way in which the tracks progressively build upon the previous song’s foundations make it seem more like it’s the band trying out different variations of the same song as opposed to being separate fully fledged songs, something that will hopefully be addressed in further releases.

It’s pretty safe to say that while Adventure isn’t going to blow your mind, it will provide you with 10 minutes of some great indie rock, especially if you dig earlier Saddle Creek material.
