Contact High - Rocket Science

Rating:	9/10

After the unexpected success of their debut, Welcome Aboard The 3C10, Rocket Science have returned with their highly anticipated second album, Contact High, which sees the band not only exploring more psychedelic & spaced out themes but also refining their songwriting. The resulting album may be a hard listen at times but in the end a rewarding one as one realises that the arrangements are well thought out and there is more emphasis given to the overall mood and atmosphere. Rocket Science haven’t completely left their garage punk roots behind (in fact some songs like crazy are more abrasive than anything on their debut) but Contact High proves they’re definitely not afraid to blast off and explore new areas.
