Album Review: "Otherness" by Alexisonfire (7/10)

Alexisonfire

Otherness

Dine Alone Records

Producers: Alexisonfire

A more accurate title for this release would have been Dallas Green and Others. It’s safe to say the strongest tracks, “Sans Soleil” and “World Stops Turning,” carry a weight more familiar to Green’s solo work. But don’t confuse this as a complaint: the songs are so strong they will likely burn up the Canadian charts. For fans of the rest of Alexisonfire, check out “Dark Night of the Soul,” as well as “Reverse The Curse,” where Green & MacNeil unleash post-hardcore licks beneath classic rock solos.
