Review: 'ARMS'
'Are We All In This Together? (EP)'   

-  Label: 'Rocket Girl'
-  Genre: 'Indie' -  Release Date: '17th November 2014'-  Catalogue No: 'rgirl106'

Our Rating:
The title poses what turns out to be more than just an idle question. Are the six members of this London-based band in this together or do they have individual agendas?

With five lead singers and a multi-national cast of players there isn't much sense of a common strategy. Instead, the four tracks have traces of Indie, folk, blues and rockabilly that all suggests its members are pulling in different directions rather than working as a team.

Arms are the brainchild of former Special Needs frontman Zachery Stephenson. singer songwriter Any Potter and 'chanteuse' Amy Fox. The other three are an Italian guitarist, French drummer and British bassist.

The limited edition double A-side 7" single pairs Are We All In This Together? with Syria while the CD EP has two additional tracks : You're On The Right Track and Graham Greene.

When they can all agree on what kind of band they want to be the might be onto something.
