Peace.......EP Delicious

Hi,

Just a short post for today! Recently I've really been enjoying listening to Peace's EP Delicious (EPs are all I can afford in the run up to Christmas!!). You can buy this EP from iTunes HERE

Background Info....
Peace are an indie-rock band with 4 members:  Harry Kossier (vocals, guitar), Samuel Koisser (bass), Douglas Castle (guitar) and Dominic Boyce (drums). They have one EP out and one album called "In love".

I love Peace's electric and clear cut guitar backing and when they add guitar following drum beats, it sounds like the drums are playing a melody. This is used in their track 1998. Ocean's eye starts with a threatening intro and between choruses it is added again. Harry Kossier's vocals are croaky and distressed and sound struggling. All their songs are meaningful and have been thought about. They change features of their songs all the way through but keep their main ideas the same, so you are never bored listening to their music. Their 80s alternative, indie rock, with gentle tracks added in make their sound unique and gorgeous. 

This band is amazing, hope you love them as much as I do!!

Top 3 Songs of the week #1

Hi,

So today's post will be my 3 favourite and most listened to songs of the week, I'll do this every Saturday. Click on the song to have a listen.

This week I've been loving:
California daze by Peace
Half in love with Elizabeth by mystery jets
Buzzcut season by Lorde

California daze is from their EP delicious. I love the dulcet guitar riffs and the way the rest of the band harmonize behind the main vocalist with ad lib. I love the lyrics and the distressed sounding way that Harry Koisser sings them. Amzing song, amazing band!

Half in love with Elizabeth is from mystery jet's album Twenty One. I love this up beat track full of light drum beats and electronic keyboard sounds. The lyrics are amazing and I love the way they sing with their Twickenham accent. Love these guys!!

Buzzcut season was iTunes single of the week a few weeks ago so I got it from there. This is a powerful track, she manages to make a memorable song with a limited backing track. This girl is only 17 and still has an amazing range and a beautiful, haunting voice. Expect a review of her new album "Pure Heroine" pretty soon!

So that's it, hope you enjoyed my post! Do you know these artists, let me know your favourite of their songs in the comments!
