With members of At The Drive In, the comparisons are obvious. Sparta sounds like At The Drive In’s artsy, more mellow little brother. This is a 4 song EP, a teaser to their full length. Which, by the sound of this, should be pretty good. This EP is hard to get excited about. It only has four songs, and there's nothing really amazing, but it's not bad either. Personally, I prefer At The Drive In, but with them being broken up, I’ll have to settle for Sparta.
