Grouplove - Never Trust a Happy Song
:: September 20, 2011 :: by Paige Winston
We all know them; rebellious indie kids with a knack for finding the perfect music to compile on their summer playlist. How aggravated they must have been when the release of Grouplove’s first full-length album occurred in mid-September.
“Colours,” —first released on their self-titled EP— kicks off with a whining front man over a catchy riff that has you instantly second guessing yourself. You’ll ask “do I like this?” and it may take a moment to process the overall melodious vibe, but when you finally do the pedal from the bass drum clicks and the song is in full swing.
A time comes in the summer where road trips to the beach are a must. When the time comes, “Naked Kids,” should be blaring in your vehicle of choice (my suggestion would be a nice VW bus). A clap track brings you back to the days of peaceful thinking and tranquility within yourself.
Never Trust A Happy Song offers more then just a few dramatic jams for the hipster masses, it has substance, rhythm, and heart.
