Melbourne based alternative rock outfit As A Rival recently released their latest album The Only Way Out Is Together (TOWOIT).
The release is a celebration of 10 years as a band; the nucleus of those formative years mixed with the lessons learned from touring and working with some of their idols. TOWOIT shows a maturity in As A Rival’s delivery while remaining true to their roots. From the album’s searing opener Lost At Sea, to the power that is All The Rage, the intimate journey of So Long and the closing statement of Hammerhead the album explores what we have grown to enjoy from As A Rival, but also dabbles into new territories.
After a four-year wait As A Rival’s third offering is musically the most diverse and inclusive representation of them as a band, addressing perseverance, resurgence, and above all love. As the one thing that is quite clear through all of this is that whatever challenges we face, The Only Way Out Is Together.
