Stick Around is a band from Ireland. Basically it's a poppunk band done by hardcore kids, or that's what I think. You know the type: Polar Bear Club, Hot Water Music and Title Fight are best known examples.
Recordopener 'Belgium Sideburn' is a very great musical intro. But also points out the big weakness of the band. This song is good because there are no vocals on it. The other 7 songs on 'When We Ran' are full of some of the most off key vocals I've heard in a while.
I shouldn't sing about people singing off key, I'm no great vocalist myself, yet when you try and compete in the poppunk genre good vocals are more important factor than let's say if you're doing a band like Infest.
Maybe the band should find a new singer or decided on another musical style to play cause 'When We Ran' isn't the kind of record that will make a lot of listeners happy.
