The Taxpayers - A Rhythm In The Cages
Review by Patty Kabick
A Rhythm In The Cages, the latest album by Taxpayers, has been receiving rave reviews from music critics and fans alike. The album is a perfect blend of punk rock, folk, and blues, with catchy melodies and thought-provoking lyrics.
The album features 11 tracks that showcase the band's talent for storytelling and songwriting. The opening track, "Easy Money," sets the tone for the rest of the album, with its upbeat tempo and catchy chorus. Other standout tracks include "The Mountain," a slow-burning ballad that showcases the band's ability to create an emotional connection with their audience, and "God Forgive These Bastards," a politically charged anthem that is sure to get listeners fired up.
One of the things that sets A Rhythm In The Cages apart from other albums in the genre is the use of unconventional instruments like accordion, trumpet, and saxophone. These instruments bring a unique sound to the album and add a layer of depth to the music.
