I love this beat. They are upbeat and dance yet they keep it under control in a way that you can still listen to this song to chill out. I actually love <u>Jon Sandler</u>'s high pitch voice in the song. The beginning is nice as an almost drowned out version of the rest of the song and then seems to start out like a normal song but then goes into their own unique style that is highly mixed and refreshing.<br />

<u>F**ked Up</u> keeps to <u>Young Rising Son</u>'s tune but in a way seems to pick up a slight more boy band-ish mood. Maybe in the way the lyrics sound like he's taking care of someone seems to remind me of a <u>Five Seconds of Summer</u> single. I still love the voice jumps in the chorus which has a good feel that is usually put out by this band. The music video is just a usual mix of them being on tour but is still entertaining.<br />

I do not really think it is worth it to watch the music video for more than ten seconds but it should be pretty important to listen to the lyrics. There's a reason <u>Keith Jeffery</u> is so clear. Those lyrics are interesting and also passing out some words to live by, or at least to get tattooed on your body. The music sounds like <u>Atlas Genius</u> in almost every way. It takes on a new twist but mostly sticks to their style</div>

You can never expect what <u>Junior Prom</u> will do next. They make each song its own and they never blend together like a melting pot of one good band. Instead, each song stands out on its own and so does this song. The most consistent feature is <u>Mark Solomich</u>'s voice. He sounds almost like he should be in a more classical rock band which seems to anchor their unique sounds. Their lyric video is unique and interesting. I can not wait for this band's new album coming out soon!<br />

This song is calming to me but i like how <u>Andrew McMahon</u> mentioned that it was about not being able to sleep at night because of the ideas one gets. This is just a relatable idea to any creative type especially if they produce their best work at night. It is just a soothing song and the piano is not entirely too strong throughout it but as it becomes stronger at the end, it is a fantastic detail.<br />

The Band of the Week this week is <u>Grouplove</u>. <u>Grouplove</u> is an amazing band. Their lead singer does not have a particularly conventionally pleasant voice but he makes it work in a way that makes him awesome. They find a way to make beautiful music while at the same time making fun music for parties and just good times. <u>Hannah Hooper</u>'s creates a nice balance for their songs as she straight up has a sweet voice which can be an advantage for them compared to bands that are composed of all guys. You probably have heard their songs <u>Tongue Tied</u>, <u>Shark Attack</u> and <u>I'm With You</u> (if not, go listen now). I suggest giving a listen to <u>Beans On Pizza</u>, <u>Bitin' The Bullet</u> and <u>Schoolboy</u>.</div>

The beginning is chaotic to snatch your attention without question so that they can transition over into a fast paced yet dreamy and pleasant rap. This is just an amazing motivator. This as to be my favorite single of theirs that they have released. Their sound seems to change a bit for every album and this song makes me so excited for them to release <u>Vikings</u>. I actually feel like this song is a great motivator to follow your dreams, to chase after them but to also take a step back and remember what you are running after.<br />

I have some bad news. This week, <u>Magic Man</u> posted on their Facebook that three of their members will be leaving. Those band members are <u>Gabe Goodman</u>, <u>Joey Sulkowski</u>, and <u>Justine Bowe</u>. This does not seem to be a bad breakup for the band and more of just a split of ways with no hard feelings. The remaining band members, <u>Alex Caplow</u> and <u>Sam Vanderhoop Lee</u> are sticking together and still writing their next new album which I'm will be excited to hear because you can but down their size but you can't take the magic out of <u>Magic Man</u>!<br />

This piano sounds angry but gets you started on the required head bobbing before the chorus where the drums hop in and make the song explode. The lead singer, <u>Nathan Willet</u>, does not necessarily have a pleasant singing voice. For a man, it sounds slightly whiny but if he sang perfectly that would make him a boring pop singer. This way, he has his style with his slightly rough persona he maintains on stage. he softens up for there bridge though and the song is great throughout the chorus.<br />

<u>WALK THE MOON</u> put on a great performance! They kicked off their show with <u>Different Colors</u> which is appropriate because it is also the first song on their new album <u>Talking Is Hard</u> which their tour is named after. It pumps everyone up and is great because it keeps everyone excited enough that they can slow it down for some songs like <u>Aquaman</u> and people are still about to jump out of their socks. They play every song off of their new album and of course plenty of the older goodies. <u>Nick Petricca</u> also took some time out of the show to preach about the fandom that you are welcomed into by becoming a fan. While it makes me think that for every young fan that they have, they are a wonderful influence. But it was awkward for my friend i brought along who will never let me hear the end of how I had brought her to a cult meeting without telling her. I was actually kind of shocked that they seemed to portray <u>jenny</u> as an angry song. I always just thought it was about <u>Jenny</u> is being sexy. I mean, she's got a body just like an hourglass. of course they tried to end on <u>Shut Up and Dance</u> but the fans were having none of that. <u>WALK THE MOON</u> is not allowed to leave the stage without singing <u>Anna Sun</u> so of course they came back for a great encore that included a cover of <u>All These Things I've Done</u> by <u>The Killers</u>. It was a great tour with a great band. I can't wait to see them again at <u>Firefly Music Festival</u>!Friedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14583607543066281352noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3298306245215293386.post-40813710005054000672015-06-01T09:30:00.002-07:002015-06-01T09:30:47.997-07:00anywayican - WALK THE MOON<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<u>anywayican</u> has to be my favorite song off of the <u>Tightrope EP</u>. It has an even drum beat that makes it have a more tribal sound before it smooths into the fast chorus that makes it feel as if the singer is chasing in circles. The lyrical story also is cute to me because it just seems kind of ridiculous yet relatable at the same time. The title fits it perfectly because the line "any way I can" is said so quickly and it just seems to easily roll off of the tongue.<br />

We have all been waiting so long for <u>New Politics</u>'s new album which I thought was supposed to be released last winter. This single that will be on their album just does not seem to sound like their usual sound. Their usual sound seems to go between being heavy rock with some yelling or extremely sweet and romantic and catchy. This does have yelling but I would not exactly call it their rock sound. The lyrics seem to be uplifting which is not surprising of them because they use their music to try and send out a message which I admire. This one just may sound a bit more main stream from these Danish as f*** guys (and <u>Louis Vecchio</u>).<br />

<u>Twenty One Pilots</u> just released their new album, <u>Blurryface</u>, a couple days early! I know that I have been excited to hear this album because of how much I love their fun and unique sound and the singles that they had been releasing sounded amazing! If you have not yet taken an ear to their new album, don't miss out!<br />

I am a big fan of <u>Hunter Hunted</u>. They had a pretty unique Indie sound but this new song that just came out today, <u>Blindside</u>, has taken on a much more common and pop-like sound. It's the first single that they have released from their album that will be coming out soon. This song is still catchy and great and with this new sound, has a much better chance of getting played on the radio. The synthetic sounds actually pick up a sound that slightly reminds me of some <u>Passion Pit</u> songs. It's a wonderful song with and upbeat tempo.<br />

This guitar wins the song. I love the chillness in the voice of the lead singer, <u>Luke Pritchard</u>. I actually love this song more than the song that they are known for, <u>Naive</u>. The chorus wins it over even though that other one is a classic. The rhyming metaphor is just catchy and has a pleasant tone.<br />

The "la la la" wins me over right off the bat. Of course, <u>Aaron Bruno</u> has to scream in his typical way and I'd be disappointed if he did otherwise. It turns into beautiful screaming in a way if that sounds possible. It has this smooth, swinging beat that is roughed up instead of being chilled with his heavy voice. This song comes off of <u>AWOLNATION</u>'s new album, <u>Run</u>. </div>

This beat pops hard. It's one of the coolest new beats that <u>Matt and Kim</u> have dropped! It basically also sums me up. There isn't really any good reason to wear more than your favorite hoodie. It basically has a smooth popping beat that forces its listeners to head bob which seems to go on with the sound. The lyric videos by them are always fun to watch.<br />

<u>The Griswolds</u> rock! They are a band composed of four lovable Australian guys who make some of the greatest and some of the best music I have heard. I love their lead singer, <u>Chris Whitehall</u> because he is just pure fun and has style that rocks as the <u>WALK THE MOON</u> fans could tell as from his <u>WALK THE MOON</u> tights. I think we should take the cue from him and start using more "sentence enhancers" like him and by that I mean you should be saying "fucking" as an adjective at least once in each sentence. Of course it was <u>Lachlan</u>'s birthday, as it is every night. They started out the show strong by walking out to <u>Gangster's Paradise</u> by <u>Coolio</u> and kicking the show off with <u>16 Years</u> which was upbeat enough to get everyone into them. While playing <u>Mississippi</u>, <u>Whitehall</u> takes encouraging the crowd to song along to a new level by dangling his microphone over the crowd. He doesn't joke around when he wants his fans voices to be heard. They played about ten wonderful songs of theirs and everyone was sad to see them go. I'll admit that I was sad that they didn't get to play all of their songs but that's because all of their songs are my favorite songs and they only miss out on playing a couple. I was actually surprised that they ended with <u>Heart of a Lion</u> rather than <u>Beware the Dog</u> (which was played second to last) because even if you don't know who they are yet, you might have heard <u>Beware the Dog</u> because it has a fun tempo and everyone wants an excuse to scream at the top of their lungs that someone's fucking crazy. <u>Heart of a Lion</u> makes sense for these guys because it comes from their original EP and just feels like it has become their theme song even if it's not the most popular one. <u>The Griswolds</u> just put on a great and fun filled show and if you haven't seen them yet, whether they're opening for <u>WALK THE MOON</u> or headlining on their new <u>EXCELLENT ADVENTURE TOUR</u>, go for any chance you can see them because you'll never forget it!</div>

<u>Panic! at the Disco</u> released a new single last week! The beginning has a great intro with the old times trumpets that sound like a typical styling of <u>Panic! at the Disco</u> that then blow up into a slow burn of a song. It seems to be different from the last album that they had released and gone back to an older version of <u>Panic!</u>. The song seems to blend together and just whir but the chorus lyrics do call for a dance because all people who dance these days are sinners.<br />

<u>Coasts</u> released a new single this morning that shares the same name as their new EP, <u>Modern Love</u>. it sounds like their other music in the way that it has a beachy tune but strong guitar that makes it rock out instead of relaxing. The music video is filmed and cut together artistically including all of the band members but mostly their lead singer. The song has a sense of a rebellious teen spirit and mixes well with the video.<br />

This song is familiar to their usual sound and released just a little bit before <u>The Wombat</u>'s deluxe album version of <u>Glitterbug</u>. The best lyric has to be that "we could be gigantic" because that's what people end up thinking every time they get into a relationship. Dive in head first, I love the music video for the wonderfully comedic take on how weird browsing tinder can be. I'm pretty sure that this may be accurate that only one out of four tinder dates go well. Or at least, the first.<br />

The synthetic sounds in the beginning are a great pop to their music. I love the sound right before the lyrics start that just reminds me of a carnival game. the slow chorus lyrics are really sweet and a lot of the lyrics are actually quite interesting. I love the slow down because especially then the lyrics hold meaning of how you can not just sit back and hope you get what you want in your life. if there is something out there that you want, go for it!<br />

<u>Mississippi</u> is from <u>The Griswolds</u>' EP, <u>Heart Of A Lion</u> and it has their more original sound before they became more involve with some synth-based sounds. I love this one because it has a slow tempo yet carries over a strong beat with a lot of fun. The music video is great because of how psychedelic it is and random. It just shows how laid back the band is and how much fun they have at music festivals.<br />
I'm excited to be seeing these guys play this coming Friday!<br />

This song always has a beginning that makes me forget how amazing the rest of the song is. It has a great keyboard sound that sounds pure in a way but constantly refreshes the song. It comes in and out so that the song does not exactly sound as long as it actually is because of the changing of styles and echoing sound.<br />

This guitar rocks. When you do not understand what the lyrics are sayiong the first time, "shoop" is life. This tune is killer and the vocals are fitting for how rough the guitar is.
