The Hiram Key - Escape From Tzolk'in (2013)
Spiral Staircase
The Hiram Key continues on with their light weight goth rock sound, this time sounding even more like The Cure than on their previous 2011 album "Amerikafka". "Escape From Tzolk'in" is a much better album. The album has The Cure's guitar sound, and some of the vocal melodies too, all over. But the songs are great, and they aren't just rip offs. For starters, the bpm is much higher than your average The Cure track, and this level of experimentation and variation has never been a part of Robert Smith's albums. Great album, great band!
