Xerxes - Xerxes For Dummies

Review by Ambinet Technologies

Xerxes For Dummies, the latest album by the American post-hardcore band Xerxes, has received a lot of attention from both fans and critics alike. The album, which was released on October 13, 2017, is a follow-up to their 2013 release, Collision Blonde.

The album consists of 11 tracks, each one displaying the band's unique sound and style. Xerxes has always been known for their intense and emotional music, and this album is no exception. The songs are raw, powerful, and full of angst, which is sure to resonate with their dedicated fanbase.

The album opens with the track "Chestnut Street," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song is a slow-burning, brooding track that builds up to a powerful climax. The rest of the album follows suit, with tracks like "Exit 123" and "Knife" showcasing the band's ability to create tension and release it in explosive bursts.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Collarbone," a haunting and emotional song that showcases the band's ability to create a sense of vulnerability and introspection. The song is a departure from the band's more aggressive sound, but it is a welcome change that showcases their versatility.
