Young Rising Sons single “King of the World”

Young Rising Sons is my type of music! From their look to their sound everyone appeals to my tastes artistically. I always talk about wanting crisper vocals but sometimes the opposite works just as good-if not better. Having crisper instrumentals with a more static sound for vocals is brilliant and makes the music even more interesting. The lyrics are amazing, poetic and truthful. The instrumentals also stand on their own and keep the song moving and the listener interested because they aren’t too repetitive. Young Rising Sons is great and I think I just found my back to school obsession.

-April B.

Check out Young Rising Sons’ music video for “King of the World” from their YouTube Channel. Its a great upbeat song:

Immigrant Union’s single “I Can’t Return”

Immigrant Union has figured out the right amount of soft and hard sounds. The mellower, soft rock feel of the music is balanced with the sharp sounds of the vocals and backup singers. Even though the vocals aren’t crisp, compared to the rest of the music they sound crisp. It’s very hard to find the right balance when going into the retro, soft rock genre and Immigrant Union has figured it out. The only thing I have to pick out is that the music video is a little too retro. I loved the idea they were going for but it didn’t come off as a naturally retro video. It came off more as a 21st Century band trying too hard to capture a 20th Century look.
