And You Were a Crow by The Parlor Mob sounds like a roaring, high-octane resurgence of late-60s and 70s hard rock, injected with the raw, volatile energy of post-grunge alt-rock. Driven by thunderous, heavy-hitting drum grooves, thick basslines, and a dual-guitar attack that trades fiery blues-rock riffs for soaring, psychedelic solos, the album feels relentlessly physical and electric. Lead vocalist Mark Melicia commands the chaos with a piercing, high-register howl reminiscent of Robert Plant and Chris Cornell, delivering lyrics with intense, soul-baring conviction. Tracks like "Hard Times" and "Can't Keep Waiting" strut with massive, foot-stomping swagger, making the whole record sound like a sweat-soaked, blues-drenched throwback played with uncompromising 2000s aggression.
