Melbourne band Storm the Sky like to rock, hard. Their usual stuff is much too heavy for my tastes, but I love the new side of themselves they’re showcasing with their unexpected cover of The 1975’s “Robbers.” There’s a little edge there, but it’s balanced out beautifully by their tender take.
I don’t expect to hear many numbers like this on their debut album Permanence, but if you love it when Storm the Sky cranks the volume the album’s out on January 16.
