After 8 years, a total of 3 singers, and a 2 year hiatus, 131 was a pivotal album release for Emarosa. They seem to have finally found a band lineup and a sound that works for them. Their latest vocalist, Bradley Walden is fitting in perfectly with the band. The whole album is really captivating throughout. Most songs on the album are captivating with clean vocals, intricate guitar work, and meaningful lyrics. However, I did not care for the song Re. It didn’t really fit in with the album. It was a sort of medley of the other songs on the album, but seemed really overproduced. Other than that, 131 is a great listen for anyone interested in rock.
Final Verdict: Nearly perfect album.
Rating: 4.5/5
