ISSUE #4

In the case of LSP there is a lot of
evidence that they are conforming to the
stereotypes of their genre – particularly
demonstrated by the vocals – which may
make it difcult for them to stand out in
such a dog eat dog industry. However, the
band’s new album Waves is highly
commendable for its lovely mixture of
slow, thrashing, screamo and guitar led
tracks. For example, the inclusion of
female vocals on track Wednesday
compliments the album beautifully. It is
reminiscent of A Day To Remember’s If It
Means A Lot To You with Sierra
Kusterbeck. LSP should perhaps consider
using this female vocalist more often.
Another commendable spectacle of Waves
is the seven-minute song. It delivers an

abundance of emotion and vulnerability
via spoken word lyrics, screamo and a
delicate guitar accompaniment. The
painstaking lyrics are relatable to all
those who have had relationship issues –
which is pretty much everyone, right?
Furthermore, the prologue style track
Does It Get Easier? is alluring and very
well constructed. The voices on the track
are accompanied with beautiful piano and
guitar melodies, really giving a sense of
overall professionalism to this album.
Right now, LSP are in no position to burst
in right at the top of the rock charts, but
nor are they in the afore mentioned abyss.
They are in amazing stead to shine Pictured: as
they have an immense musical Evans talent (left) that
is both engaging and captivating. Best (Right)
