Review: Titus Andronicus – ‘Local Business’

Posted on 25 Oct 2012 at 5:59am

2010’s ‘The Monitor‘ was a watershed moment for New Jersey’s Titus Andronicus, one that saw them take the blend of beer-soaked street punk and indie rock self-awareness from their 2008 debut and stretch it out to the size of a sold-out Springsteen stadium.

It was a bold, career-defining piece of work, dutifully respected in most circles and religiously revered in others, so much that it was an expected – accepted, even – fact that whatever these misfits cooked up next would inevitably pale in comparison to its predecessor.
So rather than attempt to outdo the bombast of ‘The Monitor’, they opted to simply undo it instead. Gone are the theatrical Civil War monologues, special guest appearances, and blustering bagpipe solos, and in their place is a leaner, relatively straight forward rock record in the form of ‘Local Business‘.
