"I don’t really think of this as an ‘album’, to me, it’s more a Greatest Hits collection formed of carefully curated tracks that could have quite easily been the entire back catalogue of an established band who have been around for a long long time. As it stands, The Amazons are really only starting to make there mark on the scene but WHAT a mark they’ve already made...."

Read MoreWe took a listen to AFTER LAUGHTER by PARAMORE, see what we thought....
The first album since 2013, which revolved around the drummer, Zac Farro's, return and reiterated to their fans there was no need to worry about the musical journey of the band and the death of teen angst being over as they were still working together creatively. However it's been a long and treacherous path to get to that place with various changes in line up and so, to me, who's followed them for a considerable amount of time it seems to be that this album is more of a rebirth and has a sense of new beginnings rather than a revival.
