Exit She Calls, Out of ReachBergen County, NJ
Scorpion Records
For fans of: Coheed and Cambria, Paramore, Title Fight, and Lemuria
Bergen County based, Exit She Calls have released, Out of Reach, their 10-song debut with guitar-crunching, catchy songs and a pop-punk feel. The songs truly shine and showcase the bands rockin' sound. Where other bands go wrong sometimes shouting or screaming, this 4-piece does right by having a singer who, well, actually sings. Kristia's soft yet passionate voice brings a good dynamic to the songs. There's also tingly, back and fourth guitar parts that make you want to shake around thanks to Jeff who shreds it up, notably on "Little Things." What's nice is that on most songs there's two different guitar parts going on. The release also features an acoustic song called "Another Growing Uncertainty." Then, there's "You're No Pig Champion" which opens with a stand out bass line. What stands out about Exit She Calls is how the guitar squeals are extended, unlike in most pop/punk songs and the drummer isn't particularly fast while the guitar parts usually are.
Exit She Calls shows that you don’t need screams or insanely technical guitar parts to be a good rock band these days. It’s refreshing to hear a band that doesn't sound like they're trying too hard or one that thinks they need to put on gimmicks. The lyrics seem to realize that things may be hard and we want may want something or someone, but we can be hopeful and we can do it on our own. They remind me of Lemuria and Tokyo Rose, melodic with sweet lyrics and a nice groove. I still contend that Exit She Calls is North Jersey's hope for a great, young pop/rock scene. You can grab a taste of the band's music here.
