#MusicMonday: Kids in the Street - The All American Rejects

It's been 4 years since I've seen the All American Rejects Live, I remember hearing this song and it really resonating with me the. And it still does now.  It was the first time I had ever heard in when we went to the concert and I immediately just felt that it was a great song, catchy, meaningful.

#MusicMonday: Patent Pending presents...

#MusicMonday again and this weeks choice is Patent Pending present Mario and the Brick Breakers: Greatest hits. This Ep was released last Tuesday and did amazingly in the UK charts hitting no7 in the pop charts and no16 overall, which is brilliant for the 6 song Ep that has a song entitled boom boom pass the mushroom.

The Ep opens on  Hey Mario a ingenious song off there Brighter album. The whole album follows suit and is pure brilliance, an incredible work and I urge you all to go and check out everything Patent Pending have done. This band has an unreal energy that is intensified when you see them live (which I have had the pleasure of three times now) but the energy is also incredibly evident in all of there recorded work. 

So stay tuned for what's to come from Mario and the brick breakers, including a thirty minute documentary and not one but five music videos. How many bands can you say have done that

Music Monday: Salvation - Wakey!Wakey!

                         

It's been four years since wakey!wakey! released "Almost Everything I wish I'd said the last time I saw you..." And now the much anticipated fan backed (via pledge music) "Salvation" is here. 

The large break between albums means it is hard to tell what we should have expected with "Salvation" but Michael Grubbs has proven that his music is explosive as ever. 

The album opens with the upbeat "All it takes" a song that definitely encourages you to move along to the beat. You can hear the heart and soul pouring out of the music and lyrics throughout all 11 tracks. 

Highlights: 

- "Thru the night" a song that carries on from "light outside" sharing a positive message to keep on and that everything will be okay. 

- "waste away" I think this song is my favourite on the album. 

- "always and forever" this song has a great beat and even better lyrics definitely a great sing a long song. 

-  "Salvation" the title track really speaks for the album it's upbeat, positive and makes you want to move around. 

Getting to finally here the album makes me beyond excited to see Wakey!Wakey! (For the third time) when he plays the Oran Mor this October
