Album review of 'Don't Die' by Nightmares for a Week

With an album title like Don’t Die, you wouldn’t expect anything like the folk music issued by Nightmares for a Week. “You Destroy Me” is a weird gang-vocaled, slow tempo-ed introduction that crusades into a much more energetic and nostalgic feeling bunch of songs (“Baby”, “Our Vessel”, “Breath’s Hard as Kerosene”). The track “Alright” feel as though you’re listening to a cross between Minus the Bear and Silversun Pickups while “Bear Mountain” basically sounds like the perfect soundtrack to dancing around naked in your underwear and ridding your mind of every possible stress you had.
