Review
When I first stumbled upon The Cab's album "Symphony Soldier," I was immediately captivated by the way it blended pop and rock elements with a polished, almost theatrical production. Released in 2011, this album epitomizes the evolution of pop-rock in the early 2010s. The Cab's infectious melodies and Alex DeLeon's striking vocal prowess truly stand out, showcasing a clear maturation from their earlier work. Songs like "Angel With A Shotgun" and "Bad" have this energetic vibe that’s perfect for anyone looking for anthems that balance emotional depth with catchy hooks. The songwriting is nuanced and hits a sweet spot with relatable feelings of love and heartache. But it's not just the singles; tracks like "Endlessly" and "Intoxicated" add layers of intimacy that make the album feel personal. "Symphony Soldier" isn't just a collection of songs, it's a polished narrative that underscores The Cab's undeniable talent and potential within the music scene. It’s one of those albums that deserves a spot on your playlist, especially if you’re into bands that craft stories within their albums, drawing you in song after song. - Guest Reviewer
