If Anything, the first full-length by Greys, is the young quartet's own warped update of vintage post-punk; frenetic guitars running against walls of noise, held together by sharp strands of melody. Emerging from the vibrant Toronto punk scene, Greys are economical in their swift punches of noise, anchoring short bursts of mania with huge choruses. The 35-minute LP pulses with a manic urgency, as drummer Braeden Craig and bassist Colin Gillespie's syncopated rhythms punctuate guitarist Cam Graham's smothering dissonance. Through exasperated shouts, Jiwani lets loose the fury that splits open his songwriting. Swinging between hard-driving punk and '90s indie riffing, the respites on If Anything only underscore Greys' brute force and anthemic inclinations. Written over the summer of 2013 and recorded in ten days at Toronto's Candle Recording studio, If Anything is a fulfilling aftershock of noise rock, immediately arresting and bursting with confidence.
