Boy Sets Fire have chosen to make an album mainly for themselves (read: watch for experimentation), which fans will hopefully in turn also enjoy. They have built a career on provocative, emotionally charged music with political overtones. And while missing the consistent hardcore punch of earlier work, the band further develops its smooth, melodic sense (coupled with an innate aggressive nature) to satisfying results on The Misery Index. Overall, the album showcases their distinct recipe for success, but with a much more eclectic feeling than previously. Gentle to raucous to manic to soothing, Boy Sets Fire (and Nathan Gray's ever-impressive range) are all over the place from song to song -- and often within the same song -- which results in many individual tracks actually sounding like separate songs sewn together.
