I share a degree of dismay when
people oft say that there's no good music out there anymore.
That's only true if you reached a
point in your life that you grew tired of people talking rubbish and
inserted your fingers in your ears never to remove them again.
There are none so deaf as those who
choose not to hear, with the obvious exception of deaf people who
have no choice in the matter.
I am in a privileged position as I
can't help but continue to be impressed with the calibre of tracks
that are sent to me to air on the Third Class Ticket radio show
I have also been humbled by the
amount of bands who send their music for review before public
release.
It's genuinely gratefully
appreciated.
The latest band to do this is
Greenock rockers Sneaky Pete.
A trio who, according to their
facebook page, have a mission to infect the world with their catchy
pop/rock/whatever.
Quite a mission but after a listen
to their debut album I can say that if Sneaky Pete are a virus then
I’m not looking for an antidote.
From the first track they manage to
snatch your attention.
The blend of synth and guitar based
rock grabs at you while the pumping bass lines and strong drumming
brings a wall of sound to the mix that allows the well written lyrics
to flow.
The band seamlessly move from song
to song, and you can hear that they have put the time in to ensure
that the running order is smooth and that they care about how each
and every note is represented to the listener..
All too soon you reach the end of
this eleven track album leaving you only one option, and that's PRESS
PLAY AND START AGAIN.
Everything Wrong at the Right time
is probably not the best title for this album as I cant find a thing
wrong with it at all.
You can hear tracks from the album
on The Third Class Ticket show on Mesi radio on 4th July
or grab a copy of the cd from July 15th by
contacting the band at www.facebook.com/iheartsneakypete
