The Say So-The Romantic-CD Review

by Jenn Cohen

Say So: (noun) final authority; directing influence

Colorado locals, the Say So, are back with their first full-length CD, The Romantic. Packed with the same authoritative intensity as their EP, Something Like Wild, The Romantic immediately grabs you with strong vocals and aggressive instruments, and refuses to be ignored. Sean Palmer (vocals/guitar), Noah Fisher (guitar), Chris Beeble (bass), and Robbie Spradling (drums), not only demand the most from their instruments, but also command them with precision; every stab of the guitar, every persistent beat of the drum, is intentional.

The Say So is releasing their CD at the Hi Dive on June 8, playing with Eldren and Take to the Oars; in the meantime, the single, “Safe to Say/I’m a Mess” is available at the sayso.net. It’s the sixth track off of The Romantic, and, in addition to “Push That Product,” and “Stumble,” one of my favorites.
