Album Review
Life In Vacuum – “5” [Album Review]
Life In Vacuum’s sophomore album, 5, sticks with the jerky and inconsistent sound heard on Commander Clark. Sasha Chornyy, Ross Chornyy, and Dylan Bravener refuse to be defined by one sound. Each song rolls from intense riffs, bass lines, and smashing drums to softer riffs and back again. It’s hard to figure out where you are in the album; when you think you know, it all gets kicked out and flipped upside down.

Each song rolls from intense riffs, bass lines, and smashing drums to softer riffs and back again. It’s hard to figure out where you are in the album; when you think you know, it all gets kicked out and flipped upside down.
While not much is new from their first album, 5 shows how much Life In Vacuum has matured as a band, with heavier songs like “You Did It To Yourself,” opening the album, and experimenting with softer riffs and vocals for brief periods in “I Don’t Fit,” and “Seven.” It takes a tight group of musicians to do what these guys do; jumping from punk to hardcore riffs and drum lines with equally complicated vocals. You won’t regret giving this Waterloo, ON band a listen, each song has something for everyone who can dig complicated rock.
