With this song, my faith in garage rock is renewed. This young band from Victoria made a significant impact in the world of alternative music in 2006, but it wasn’t until 2008 when they released their debut album, did they begin to receive great recognition.
Put simply, these guys sound like a rock band. No freaked out solos and inventive drum beats, but pure plain and simple rock and roll. Even their songs, well at least this one is, are about the rock and roll lifestyle. Vocally, their singer has a clean voice that suits any rock band out there. But it is the way the band manages to put their music together that makes this song work.
As I said before, the vocals are quite unique. By unique, I mean there is nothing unique about them. They are quite plain, but this works to the advantage of the song. The chorus shows an awesome ‘vocal riff’ that would get some rather loud attention at concerts, but the way that their singer expels the energy out as he sings it shows dedication as a musician and that is one very admirable thing.
