Things are getting crazier every day, these times are even worse than what we could have feared only a few years ago but thankfully there are many forms of expression which are so many ramparts to resignation and defeatism. Bleakness is a great testimony of that. 'Life At A Standstill' is the second full lenght of this prolific and inspired band. Through these ten songs, Bleakness walks on a wire between tension and a certain sense of sensibility. The band succeeds in nuance and inventiveness: more vocal diversity, more melodic and rhythmic richness... without losing the energy and the urgency acclaimed in their previous efforts. 'Life At A Standstill' shows the range of possibilities of punk culture, Bleakness brings lots of new atmospheres in its universe.
