Twin Atlantic Download slowing
the pace down, if only for a short while, in the verses. Lead singer,
Sam, shows off his cracking Scottish vocals in these verses, while the
other lads, Barry, Ross and Craig, back him up in the commanding and
powerful chorus.
The last HiveMag.com spoke to Twin Atlantic
they were touring with this album, and one of the things they said is
that they’ve tried to be as honest as possible on this record.
Personally I think this song demonstrates that statement perfectly.
With lyrics like “…You know it’s the end of our sweet universe…”,
and talk of the answer being in the bottle, this song displays the
bands fears about our country, and even the world going to pot. Well
that’s what I reckon it sounds like anyway. A pretty apt release, in
touch with the current news topics if you ask me.
Technically speaking,
the way the textures build and drop throughout the song gives it so much
more meaning and emphasizes the points the band want emphasizing
flawlessly. Twin Atlantic don’t just write a song, they pour their
heart and soul into it. They never second guess their lyrics or their
motives for writing it, and I think that’s what makes these guys so
special. Being as honest as they are is what makes their fans believe
in them and I reckon is what assures them that Twin Atlantic aren’t just
in the business for the buck.
Get a hold of the single
and you’ll get exactly what I mean, better still grab the album and
listen to a group of true Scots standing up for what they believe in and
carving a backbone into modern day alternative music!!!
