9. Emergency
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cU73lobixs This is easily one of the best cuts from last years, 'Black Rabbits', set. Sitting at around the same BPM as 'Sweet As Sugar', and again, is one for when you want some powerful, melodic hard rock. Everything about this track really reminds me of Anberlin, and if you are a fan of that particular band, you will adore this. Thematically unhappy, as Jamieson sings, "I have the lost the place to go within, I'm suffering in my own skin". The part of this song I'm always waiting for, is under the final chorus, when the backing vocals mimic a guitar melody that sits low in the mix. Absolute perfection. The band really excel when producing songs at this tempo.
