›Beacon Of Faith‹ broadly follows the same trajectory as the album’s predecessors, ›Bushcraft‹ (2013) and ›Bloodmines‹ (2014) - combining raw adrenaline-fuelled emotion, venomous vocal delivery, gigantic guitar sound, and a visceral rhythmic propulsion - a sonic manifestation of desolate rage, bolstered by a palpable sense of urgency. ›Beacon Of Faith‹ is densely-packed yet Baptists’ sound is far from claustrophobic, there is melody amongst the dissonance, as the band more deeply explore the noise rock vistas that have always underpinned their sound. Lyrics are drawn from their direct experience of a broken society and general discontentment with everyday life. A multitude of issues are in the firing line, from the Canadian court system, issues surrounding substance abuse, mental health, and how the more fortunate ›tend to dismiss people who have been dealt a less-fortunate hand‹ - as guitarist Danny also reflects.
