'Survive' the solo effort

Indie/alternative artist Anthony Green expresses himself through a variety of musical styles in his latest solo album “Beautiful Things.”

Whereas his first solo album featured mainly his acoustic work and had a calming flow to it, some of the songs on this album are more reminiscent of Green’s full-time gig in Circa Survive.

Those who were fond of his first solo album might be disappointed by this new release.

Lyrically, Green’s writing style hasn’t changed too much. Most of his songs are just about living life and his perspective on it. The final track of the album is titled “Lullaby,” which seems fitting due to the fact that Green has grown up, is married and has a kid.  

All in all, the album isn’t anything special, but if you’re a die-hard Green fan, “Beautiful Things” probably won’t disappoint.
