Absolute Monarchs: 1

1 cover art

 
1 is the debut album from Seattle post-punk band Absolute Monarchs. If a knife is considered edgy then Absolute Monarchs are a Samurai sword. The ten tracks on 1 are poweful, expertly executed odes to an epoch where post-punk has risen to the heights of arena rock. This an absolutely great record...period.
