Summer of Wolves showcases creative, unconventional song structures and uncommon ideals as much as it does caustic, pissed off hardcore angst. Showcasing the ability to pace themselves across the record"s length and somehow still pulling off the 8-minute "This Is The Blues" alongside more turbo-charged two- and three-minute anthems like "+ + +" and "Bring In The Suit" and "Firespitter," THE MINOR TIMES proves that there"s still plenty of room for intelligence, creativity and ingenuity within the confines of an easily pigeonhole-able genre. Spanning 41 minutes across 11 tracks, Summer of Wolves is a more than worthy follow-up to Making Enemies, sure to keep fans already on the band"s side happy, while still catching newcomers" ears...and eyes. With detailed artwork and layout from artist Mark Price, mastering from Alan Douches (Shadows Fall, Mastodon, Converge) and a crystal clear recording from returning producer Vince Ratti (A Life Once Lost, Bury Your Dead), Summer of Wolves is a complete package, necessitating a hard copy in the digital age.
