Vonnegutt - Falling Up The Stairs



Vonnegutt is A rock-rap group signed to Big Boi's purple ribbon. This is their debut record.

1.Downfall-
A strong opening track. This song set's the mood to what you're gonna hear in this album. This song contains Kyle Lucas on verse's Neil Garrard on chorus. The instrumental fits the lyrics perfectly.

2.Bright Eyes-
This song was previously released on the appetizer - EP. It is definately a song im glad made the album. Again this song focuses with Kyle Lucas on verses Neil Garrard on chorus. Kyle Lucas shows humorous side on this song.

3.Thinking About The Time-
This Song is one of my favorites. Again Kyle Lucas is on the verse's Neil Garrard is on the chorus. I only keep bringing this up because there are a couple songs where Neil does verse's.

4.Knock (Feat. Will Pugh of Cartel)-
This song truly shows A rock influence as lead singer of Cartel, Will Pugh does vocal's. Kyle Lucas does the verse's. I pick this song as one of my favorites on this album. Vocals by Kyle Lucas &Will Pugh fit the instrumental so well.

5.Hard To Say-
This is another one of my favorites. The vocals once again mesh perfectly with the intrumental. There is not much more I can say about this song other than listen to it.

6.Going Home-
This in my opinion is A song about kinda having regret for what your doing, but at the same time not giving a fuck. It is one of the more party influenced song's on the album.

7.On My Side-
This song is sung alot more by both Kyle Lucas & Neil Garrard. It is another one of my favorites on this record. The Vocals and instrumental are cool because in my opinion they almost collide with one another, which I really enjoy.

8.Ode To What's Left Of Hope-
This song focuses alot more on vocal's by Neil Garrard, but Kyle Lucas is not completely out of the song. The instrumental is my favorite part of the song.

9.Too Close-
By far I think this song may be my number one favorite from this record. It start's with an intro by Neil Garrard then slowly moves into Kyle Lucas rapping about A girl with A drug problem. My favorite line is (your starving for attention, did I forget to mention welcome to your own episode of intervention biatch) haha.

10.Lights (Feat. Big Boi & WNDRBRD)-
Im not quite sure who WNDRBRD is, but I Definately know who Big Boi is. This song truly shows why Vonnegutt were signed by Big Boi. The answer is because they work so well together. The beat to this song is almost electronica. It is A great all around song.

11.Final Fantasy-
When I saw the name of this I thought it had something to do with the video game. Listening I honestly couldn't tell if it did however I highly doubt it did. This song did not standout too much for me other than the name.

12.Falling Up The Stairs-
Great Closing Track. It is also clearly the title track, and I can see why. The song is a perfect blend of great instrumental and great vocals. By far A great song.

For being the debut album for this group it feels like there is way more experience then one full length.

Overall: 4/5
