Dearly Beloved - Race To The Bottom [Music Video Review]

August 23, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music Videos, Indie Rock

Rating: 3.5 out of 5

“This single caught me by surprise. The varying vocals hooked me early, and the retro rock sound is perfect for the blend of voices. Production wise this one left the vocals a bit more muffled than I would have preferred which probably hurt my overall emotional attachment, but I am quite intrigued by the obvious talent and look forward to hearing more from this band.”

        “With vocals that reminded of Elton John at times, Norman Kim unleashes a debut that demands we all pay attention.

        Both the video and the lyrics of ‘Nothing Wring With My Life’ feel like fun and I can’t help but think I am watching to arrival of a brand new star. Not on the far off horizon, in the here and now.”

          “Nostalgia and heartache go together like David Bowie and eyeliner, so missing your lover and your favorite artists is a creative way to bring those emotions forward. Pop vocals added to a nice beat and melody help bring out the longing in this worthy single from chloe mk.”

                          That is the heart of this single about former lovers now separated, and missing each other and the way things were. This of course is not unfamiliar territory for songwriters, but the imagery is sharp within the lyrics and the performance makes ‘Strangers Arms’ stand out in all the right ways. ”

In his new visual and single he reveals to us his situationship and how women tend to always have all the cards, he is just a silent partner. My favorite part was the end with the trio back up singers taking it back to 90s music with a rap twist. ”

                                “A ladies anthem to masturbation and ‘Self Love.’ This single is pure commercial fun. Think Right Said Fred (if he were a sexy British vixen full of innuendo), mixed with the vivacious spirit of Taylor Swift (if she had to take matters into her own hands instead of leaving a trail of brokenhearted songs to be behind her).”

                                  “Fire” lights a match with its catchy chorus and smooth guitar strings, I can see why it makes great show placement. ”

                                    “With a sound that hints of punk and 90s alternative, The Brookes launch their single ‘Spaceship Rodeo’ which is captivating at liftoff, even before you get into the smart, ethereal quality of the lyrics.

                                    This kind intelligent indie rock is a throwback in many ways as it captures the best sounds of yore, while still feeling fresh, smart, and cutting edge.”

                                      “The combination of two talents, in R3HAB and Vini Vici gives us the beat and melody to get up and get moving. Vocals from Pangea & Dego put words to the emotion and spirit of this track. Add in a mesmerizing video, and this is a true summer anthem that both uplifts and entertains. ”

                                        “SYORA brings a vintage hard rock sound with ‘Anchorite,’ and it is the kind of sound you don’t much hear anymore unless you go looking and that is a shame. Interestingly enough, the video showcases a man looking for something he thinks he can never find again.

                                        Both the song and the video are captivating in that something bad is going to happen kind of way. The foreboding sense of doom is captivating and the true rock sound is the perfect vehicle for such a beast. ”
