Give Me A Try - The Wombats

This song is familiar to their usual sound and released just a little bit before The Wombat's deluxe album version of Glitterbug. 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.

Portugal - WALK THE MOON

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!
I am so excited to be seeing WALK THE MOON this Friday on their Talking Is Hard tour!

Mississippi - The Griswolds

Mississippi is from The Griswolds' EP, Heart Of A Lion 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.
I'm excited to be seeing these guys play this coming Friday!

Rebel Hill - Vinyl Thief

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.

On Fire - Loon Lake

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. Somehow, one could take these lyrics of a girl being on fire and not being put out and relate it to "shortie fire burnin' on the dancefloor". Enjoy prom this weekend, everyone!

Tear In My Heart - Twenty One Pilots

Start. Stop. Start. Stop. And then it takes it away with pretty lyrics and a sweet piano and drum rhythm. It has a sort of classic sound because of the piano that takes you back in time but not too far back. Of course his lyrics are romantic but takes a turn for just a little teen rebellion before turning back to the sweetness. The setting is pretty interesting in China Town and the Twenty One Pilots fans are going wild with the appearance of lead singer, Tyler Joseph's wife, Jenna.
