Its been 3 years since their last huge album and now the wait is over. Opshop's Until the end of time is proof these boys are quite simply brilliant. From the epic start of the current single, Pins and Needles to the complex track " Monsters Under the Bed", Opshop continue to perfectly mix every band members talent into an album that will not disapoint.
There's a huge mix of tempo which allows for brooding tracks like Everything to Someone and a few experimental sounds which punch through the start of tracks like Paradox.
The lyrics are always thoughtful and beautifully executed , the boys experience in writing and playing is evident with every track - each song is tight, the drumming, i thought , brilliant and the unique musical twists well placed. Its a band that know what they are doing and have the chance to give things a go which always make enjoyable listening.
Sundays Best Clothes , Love Will Always Win and Clarity are my favourites but that's the good thing about Opshop and in particular this album , theres something for everyone.
PS - Yes I have known the boys for about 15 years - but it makes more honest...
