    Home Front have figured out a way to further draw out what makes them special and have used those elements to create an album, that perhaps against the odds, surpassed the emotional push of Games of Power.

    The result is a dozen highly listenable songs that don't sound like anything else in the world of rock music right now.

    The intensity and immediacy of these [punk-infused tracks] songs make them the record’s unmistakable moments—the ones you can’t ignore, the moments that stick with you after the album ends. By contrast, the softer, more reflective tracks—the “Jekyll side,” if you will—don’t hit with the same immediacy.

    Consistently, Watch It Die is easy listening. That’s a compliment, given the way that gnarly guitar lines and shouted vocals can intertwine with synth lines you’d expect from The Killers, such as the motoring thump of Between The Waves. It’s also a critique on the simplicity of some melodies.

    Watch It Die will likely comfort those already on side, but it leaves you wondering whether well-intentioned decency is enough when the world they’re responding to demands more than sanitised anger and familiar sounds.
