Paper Champion
2 stars I ran across this EP after I had bought band’s studio album, so I knew what to expect roughly. I was confident of getting raw material and demo versions of some songs presented on the album.

The EP is rather short (24 minutes) and contains 6 tracks – two of which available on the album in the altered, polished form. These are My Marshell and Speed My Way. The former is very raw and even shorter than far too short album version; the latter is quite accomplished, but vocals are false and incondite in some verses. Groove Box, Hubastank and Learn To Fly are very similar to each other structurally – it seems that they have the same idea and correspond to common objective. They are very simple musically, but very energetic and positive. I like Hubastank especially and even set this melody on my alarm clock!:) All Is Full Of Love, Bjork cover, is just a mediocre acoustic song. By the way, I heard some (funny) Russian words at the end of this track, which made me smile a lot.

Overall, it is an average debut EP, which doesn’t show all the power EIMIC actually has. No post-rock can be noticed here, only some Muse and Dredg influences together with nice simple rock structures. 2.5 stars.
