With most of my favorite bands finishing up tours and going back to the studio there hasn’t been any new music to listen to really. So, in an effort to satiate my musical hunger, I set out on a long quest for fresh music and bands that I could listen to for a long time. It took me hours, but I found these guys called Say It Twice and I thought that I should bring attention to them and their music. They definitely brought a different sound to their Jetset Trends EP, which is available now on Smartpunk.com.
Their use of the synthesizers like in their new single, “Room on Fire”, was simply mesmerizing as you become so engulfed by the rhythm and start dancing almost automatically. Not only do their songs make you dance, but their amazing lyrical content that can tug on your heart strings. I loved the emotion that came out in their songs like “Always, Always” and one of my favorites off the album, “Your Way Home”. You can sense the conflict in the song and the sadness that grows in you as you listen on to this sad tale of letting someone go.
It’s easy to understand that with beats that are infectious and lyrics that people can connect with, Say It Twice is definitely a band to watch for. You can catch these guys on Warped Tour in August.
