SINGLE REVIEW: Brian Wolff - The Golden Age
Austin, Texas' Brian Wolff encourages listeners to keep an open mind to change. Embrace new cultures and natural progression on his stunning new single, 'The Golden Age'.
A passionate lyric, Brian blasts with his eruptive sound that while it's okay to remember 'The Golden Age' with fondness, life needs to move on; otherwise, we'd be stuck forever listening to the same songs and watching the same films. It's a robust lyric about how easy it is to become set in your ways. It encompasses the idea that while society is getting so much more diverse, minds are often getting more closed, content with living on past ideals and shunning things they don't understand. A retrospective look at how the older generation repeatedly berated youngsters for not living their lives the same way they did. It takes the stance that 'The Golden Age' could be any time, that every generation will look back on their youth as better than modern times. The concept that the golden age only truly exists in one's mind.
A progressive sound that volcanically erupts into an epic chorus.
Brian takes influence from heavy rock and 90's alternative. His sound is bold and confident, with stadium-filling qualities. Anthemic with brazen guitars and abounding with catchy hooks.
'The Golden Age' is exquisitely produced, retaining Brian's raw passion. He has a melodic, authentic Americana voice with a beautiful rasp. Taking on the changes in the track's pace with ease and professionalism shows what a versatile talent he is.
'The Golden Age' is an exceptional lyric delivered magnificently with lavish moments channelled against tender thoughtfulness. It's a grand tune that I highly recommend you give a spin!
