The Glorious Sons
\nThe Union
\n<\/i>(Blackbox Recordings)
\n3.5\/5<\/p>\n

The Glorious Sons hold true to their name on their second album, The Union.<\/i> These Kingston, ON boys know how to rock and get listeners\u2019 hips moving.<\/p>\n

I can imagine this band playing at a music festival; if they sound as good live as they do on this album, I would bet they put on an awesome show.<\/p>\n

From the first few riffs of the opening song, \u201cMan Made Man,\u201d I was hooked. The album is filled with party songs and their upbeat rhythms are addicting.<\/p>\n

The lead singer, Brett Emmons, belts out interesting and relatable lyrics in a way that, at times, reminds me of an \u201980s Billy Idol.<\/p>\n

There are a few surprises on The Union.<\/i> The uplifting \u201cLightning\u201d leans more towards pop-rock, instead of maintaining the grungy sounds of the previous songs. \u201cAmigos\u201d also stands out on its own, being a slow piano-accompanied ballad.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll be keeping these guys on my radar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
