“Sometimes, it hits you like a fucking brick, this kind of music. Blasting out from a shadow of political fury, spiraling guitar antics, and a collection of music’s most talented musicians, SeepeopleS The Corn Syrup Conspiracy is an open-air, free ride that collects bits and pieces from eras long gone, present day beats, and somehow, gains access to the portal’s of the way music will sound in the future. ”
“While Seepeoples is an anarchist political band, their message is more of hope than of destruction. Also, as a political band, their lyrics are a central part of their music, but their music is strong enough that the lyrics are not your main focus. Their sound, as well, is more Radiohead than Sex Pistols. They also bring to mind Portishead as much as they do the Clash, which is an example of the wide range of styles interspersed throughout, popping up where you least expect it. This album has elements to it that everyone could enjoy, while not detracting from the disc as a whole.”
