I've never really heard any Joywave songs before, but I was very excited by this one. The song has vocals that aren't particularly original(about beautiful but dumb people) but they have an impact and sound like their a soundtrack to moving away from your home to one you know will be worse. The song starts off very energetically, with drums that are almost electronic and AWOLNATION-style instrumentation, making a very appealing song. The song ends badly with its minute long of low volume keyboards that I guess mirror being in the car a long time while moving, but the last thirty seconds are unnecessary in this six minute long song. The song could ma ke a good closer for an album, with its gentle bring down into quiet. Now that I've listened to a few of the other singles (along with this song) for Joywave's upcoming album, I really want to hear the album, which may even be better that Sir Sly's recent and decent Don't You Worry, Honey.

With the new Kaleidoscope EP coming out at an indefinite date later in the summer, Coldplay of course had to release almost every song on it as a single. The first two were disappointing, Something Just Like This being horrible(the Tokyo Remix  for the EP not being much better), and Hypnotised being a bit weird and unappealing. All I Can Think About Is You was okay, but there wasn't much reason to anticipate this song(Kaleidoscope's companion, A Head Full of Dreams only had one good song, Adventure of a Lifetime) except its cool name. When I heard this song, I was pretty excited. The song wouldn't seem out of place on Mylo Xyloto(it was produced by Brian Eno), with its shimmery synths and electric guitar, but adds a few new and important elements(and a few bad ones). The song has a relatively fast beat that wouldn't seem out of place on a Twenty One Pilots Song, and a bass line that gives the song a lot of depth which Coldplay doesn't often have, and both of thes...

I've been really excited for this album to come out. High was a really good lead single for the album, and while the other singles may not have been as good at least they were interesting. Hopefully, this album will turn out well. The album starts with High, the song that introduced a lot of people to Sir Sly(if you hadn't already heard Gold earlier) and was a decently sized hit. I would've preferred that the song not open the album, but be at least the second track with a good opener in front of it, like Where I'm Going. Never the less, the song's pounding bass, buoyant guitar and excellent lyrics still do well to open the album. I reviewed Change before, as it was the last single for the album,  but to sum it up the song is a decent song with slightly jerky The Neighbourhood-esque guitars, hand claps, and light but pleading vocals. Not a bad song, but it doesn't really work as you're coming off the adrenaline rush that is High. &Run is driven by a si...

Wow. This debut single for the band Kyd The Band is just amazing. When I heard this song, I was blown away- it's one of the best new pop rock songs I've heard in awhile, even though Evolve, Woodstock, Don't You Worry, Honey, and LA DIVINE all have came out in the past month. The song combines the best features of otherwise terrible uplifting pop rock(see: American Authors) with a great vocalist with a good range and good musical composition. The song contains a relatively uplifting but still real electric guitar with a working bassline, awesome vocal variation and an important message, all combined to become a really good song. The song is about trying to make a life for yourself, and is delivered through accepting and buoyant lyrics that focus on the singer's love for his partner rather than the difficulties he will have to go through to secure them a future. The lyrics are delivered in many styles- straight singing, semi-falsetto, and even semi-rapping to drive the ...
