At first listening I thought “Oh, this is not a genre I would usually go for” but surprisingly, it suddenly stuck in my head and now, I can’t get enough!

The album kicks off to seem almost slow, up until the first second of the first track- “Sunlight”. The beginning manages to achieve a powerful sound, whilst also adding a build up into the choruses. All the instruments work together so well when they need to be loud and quiet. I really love the change in pitch during the vocals too, I think it adds extra to the vocals and really makes it something special- instead of straight vocals there’s a rough edge at certain points.

“Below You and Me” really pushes the EP further with the post-hardcore genre at the beginning of the track, however takes a drastic change in tempo. Usually this doesn’t work- however I think Tomorrow We Radio have really worked it in well, keeping the EP going strong however almost calming it down until the end of the track, whilst still keeping the EP flowing as it should. I get this from the rough edged vocals and also the hard going instruments.

“Dead Streets” ends the EP well, I personally think, capturing the post-hardcore genre. I also really enjoy the harder tighter instruments in this track, however the vocals seem to be a lot softer and I think this contrast works so well, I especially love the fact there is vocal repetition giving the actual words emphasis, which I really love for the fact I like to know the understanding of the lyrics in a particular song.

I think this EP has managed to balance everything really well. Very rarely do you get an artist (or in this case group of artists) that manage to merge together the easy listening at home with the ability of a live experience. I can’t actually wait to see them live, I’m sure it’ll be really great- particularly with “Dead Streets” I know there will be LOTS of audience participation, which just makes a track so much better.
