Park's genius is found within their amazingly moody, chill sound and destructive guitars that are simply insane. The CD is filled with a million guitar lines and riffs, with a complex structure behind it and soaring vocals stricken with emotion. Every song consists of dark, clean guitars underneath blazingly loud distortion that kills. Consistently, on every song, the band is right on target, always sounding mature, original, and genuinely interesting. Vocally, the singer sounds akin to The Starting Line meets Armor For Sleep but with his own obvious style to it. Matching perfectly with the eerie guitars, the singer simply never gets old. As raw as he sounds, the melodies are unsurpassable, smoothly deposited and constructed behind the blasting guitars. As if the killer guitar work and vocals weren't enough, the lyrics are often mysterious and make for a truly original sound.
Park's No Signal is the result when you combine perfect construction with soaring production. If you don't have this disc yet, buy it immediately. The myriad of complex and varying guitar lines, eerie, unintelligable (in meaning) vocals, and soaring vocal melodies are unbelieveable. This band is one of the most underrated bands of all time.
