See Through Dresses' sound is lathered in squealing, wailing guitars that melt and sway in the sludge of the rawest depths of grunge. The frazzled cocoon that is "Everyman" is laced with the threat "Wait 'til father gets home" delivered in a neutral tone while the guitars frantically crash through the song. There's a constant juxtaposition between the vocals and the music in a good chunk of this EP, like each element is offering a searing rebuke. One this EP, the ferocious and unflinching music takes centre stage.
The real expression in this EP is in Sara Bertuldo's searing guitar playing and new recruit Alex Kirts's sinewy, fluid bass playing. However, the title track experiments with a more acoustic sound. Here Mathew Carroll delivers a soothing vignette of a life lived, from childhood ("I want to be the boy you drop safe at school") to new relationships in adulthood that eventually lead to a view of finality ("But I don't want to outlive/It would be too hard"). End of Days is a rewarding collection of songs toying with different sounds that seems like a work in progress, offering a glimpse at what the band's sound may become.
