Fenix Down

The Skeleton Party

Editor's Review:

After spending three years holed up in garages and bedrooms throughout Chico, California, while they recorded an album on a college budget, Fenix Down’s The Skeleton Party sounds like it was worth the wait. A melodic rock group with an eerie, sort of macabre sound, Fenix Down falls outside the boundaries of most “normal” college bands with lyrics that sweep across oceans, heaven and hell, midnight cliff tops and open coffins, while vocalist Matt Petyo’s voice haunts the foreground like some sort of apparition. It does not sound like a homemade album, but it has a definite college rock awness to it that allows you to hear everything that’s going on in the music — and there’s a lot. Turn it on if you plan on sitting down and listening to it.
