Review – Blaqk Audio “CexCells”
Davey Havok is my age, and he grew up listening to the same sort of stuff I did. It’s really no secret, despite the surprise of several million american teenagers – the B-side to Miss Murder was a cover of the Morrissey B-side “Jack the Ripper” (although you can tell they’ve only heard the live version) and there’s the presence of folks like Ronan Harris on AFI’s Decemberunderground. So all in all, it’s none-too-surprising that CexCells sounds an awful lot like it was written by people who really wanted to toast their favorite 80′s and 90′s bands.
That’s probably the best thing about the album, and also its major weakness.
