Tearing through vicious crescendos and angry shouts all while laying down some technical clean sections for good measure, Caravels make another addition to the growing Ambient Hardcore scene. Floorboards takes cues from its scene neighbors in the likes of La Dispute and Touche Amore, but also strings in a number of cleaner sections and a vocal style reminiscent of Enter Shikari's Rou & Rory.
As "Iceland" opens quietly, it builds quickly into that well-known crescendo you hear in the aforementioned acts. As the vocalist enters the picture, things quickly become chaotic, and anger explodes everywhere. The guitars are sharp and heavy, with a jagged rhythm section backing. The snare is tight and the cymbals are dry with little sustain. Everything pierces perfectly through the mix without one part toppling over the others.
