Blunt Mechanic is Ben Barnett, who previously spent a decade as the singer, guitarist, and songwriter of Kind of Like Spitting. On World Record, Barnett evolves from the lo-fi, downbeat sounds of Kind of Like Spitting, opting for a fuller sound with more aggressive up-tempo tracks. World Record is steeped in hook heavy songs with harmonies, ambient noise and revealing lyrics. The album alternates nicely between slow ballads and lo-fi rockers that should satisfy Kind of Like Spitting fans and new fans alike. – Written by JFelton
