Sonic Cartel’s new EP begins with Fires, a track that blends together punk with alternative rock with a high enough momentum to keep listeners involved in the next three tracks. Point of View blends together angular rock and emphatic drums to tattoo the song’s melody deep into the minds and hearts of fans.Consumed changes up the band’s style to adopt more of a reggae / Porno for Pyros style. It is this shift that keeps things fresh as Sonic Cartel moves into Tell Me What You Mean. Tell Me What You Mean ends the EP as strong at begins with a blending of Dogstar and Soul Asylum; Sonic Cartel hit it out of the park with each of these efforts.
