Floral Green, the Pennsylvania Post-Hardcore band Title Fight’s second studio album, was released on September 18, 2012 through their record label SideOneDummy.

Floral Green takes everything from the band’s first album, Shed, and does it better. The production quality has gone up a lot since Shed, and they have made an even more unique sound for themselves on this record than they had had on Shed. Floral Green is an album about struggling with mental-health, and it does an excellent job at doing so, compliment of the vocals, riffs, drums, and bassline.

Tracks like “Numb, But I Still Feel It,” “Head in the Ceiling Fan,” and “Like a Ritual” showcase the band’s relatable song-writing. Title Fight’s playing is very passionate and although their songs aren’t hard to play, the rhythm and uniqueness of their melodies make “Floral Green” an unforgettable listen. Additionally, “Floral Green,” unlike their previous album “Shed,” incorporates more shoe-gaze elements while still maintaining their post-hardcore fusion sound.

My favorite track of the album is personally “Secret Society,” as the bassline of the song just wakes something inside of me, which is due to Ned Russin, their bass player and lead singer, strumming his bass and playing power chords instead of simply just playing root notes. Lyrically, I resonate with the song highly, which is what makes it my most listened to track of the album.

Overall, I think “Floral Green” is Title Fight’s best sounding album, while “Shed” is their best overall album. I think they found something special with their sound on “Floral Green,” and I wish they had stuck with it. I give “Floral Green” a 5/5.
