Over the past decade, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists have provided their fans with album after album of marked consistency. Although never known as a band that has particularly expanded their sound too far outside the realm of their signature brand of melodic, energetic punk rock, their unique blend of punk, ska, rock and other genres has become honed to the point of predictable excellence. On their sixth album, The Brutalist Bricks, continues the band down their remarkable run of reliability.

The Brutalist Bricks kicks off in signature form, as Ted Leo’s melodic and energetic guitar work, Marty Key’s pocket bass and Chris Wilson’s steady drumbeat seamlessly merge on “The Mighty Sparrow” that stands among their best work. “Avian Eyes” is an enticing offer yearning for acceptance, as Leo’s voice is at its most infectious while being back by the continual force of the guitar assault and drum attack. The album’s first single, “Even Heroes Have to Die,” recalls a poppier version of The Clash as the song implores listeners to answer its anthemic call.
On the song “Bottled in Cork,” Leo admits “sometimes the path to least resistance will gain you the most.” Rather summing up the best way to consume the band’s music. Ted Leo and the Pharmacists bring something to the table on all 13 tracks found on The Brutalist Bricks, even on hidden late album gems including “Gimme Wire,” which showcases Leo’s dexterious guitar work, providing a brilliant pop-punk gem hidden amongst the album’s consistency. While the album does not expand upon their laurels by developing their sound, that point is negative thing to comment on—a minor issue considering their quality of work throughout The Brutalist Bricks. |
