Departing was a hard review for me to write because after a first listen it was really difficult to say what it was that made me want to keep listening. Nils Edenloff’s vocals can be right on the edge of annoying and whiny but something about them makes it perfect. The music is incredibly simple with a guitar, a keyboard, and drums making up all the instruments used. Most of the songs are really catchy and have a lot of replay-ability. The lyrics also sound sincere and bare. This is one of the better three piece bands I have heard. Departing is a hard album to ignore and to not get stuck in your head. The Rural Alberta Advantage should be on everyone’s radar and everyone’s Must Listen Band of 2011 List.
Final Review- 85
