Album Review: Of Mice And Men – Defy
When Of Mice and Men released Restoring Force all the way back in 2014, I played it on a loop. Since then, I’ve mostly stopped keeping up with what they’ve been up to (bar the big one, Austin Carlile’s departure from the band back in 2016). Since then, the band became a four piece, with […]
