REVIEW: Steal The City – Road to Nowhere

Lizi had a listen to Steal The City’s debut album Road to Nowhere!

Sheffield’s Steal The City released their debut album Road to Nowhere on September 20.

Drag Me to Hell kicks off with a great drum intro and some sick riffs and instrumentation that at times reminds me of Black Veil Brides. As the vocals kick in, they’re angsty and relatable. This is extremely catchy and a great opener for the album. It has metal instrumentation with rock vocals.

In Ruins has some haunting vocals at the start before kicking into a super catchy track.

Stand Together is a beautiful track. The lyrics – which talk about not being alone even if you think you are and being stronger than you’ll ever know – are extremely uplifting. It also has some great riffs and the gang vocals are really cool.

You Don’t Define Me kicks up the metal sound a notch with the fab opening riffs. It also has a great, positive message about not letting someone define you.

Tomorrow’s Another Day slows things right down with a piano introduction and acoustic guitar as Joe opens up his soul.

Road to Nowhere is a great album. It has sick riffs and drum fills as well as great bass lines. The vocals and lyrics top it off. Lyrically almost every track is relatable in some way. It is extremely catchy and a strong debut. There is something for everyone, whether you’re a fan of classic rock, metal and even acoustic ballads.
