SINGLE REVIEW: Stephen R Williams - This Country

Single Review
Written By Amy

A hauntingly nightmarish intro, characterised by atmospheric ambiance and subtle guitars, sets the stage for 'This Country.' Soon after, the track shifts into a classic 80's-inspired groove. It features a transfixing new wave vocal with a higher-pitched tone, and a somewhat DIY aesthetic adds to its charm. When the chorus kicks in, the track's energy ramps up significantly, introducing a bold, full-power rock sound.

Throughout the song, there's an underlying dark and sinister vibe that creeps in, infusing the track with an uneasy energy. The angular guitars rumble, frequently changing tempo to heighten their impact. An electrifying guitar solo provides Stephen with an opportunity to flex his talent. His wonderful voice strikes a perfect balance between rugged and melodic.

By day I'm a Leaks, Condensation, Damp and Mould Resident Liaison Officer and by night I'm CRB's admin bitch, reviewer extraordinaire, point and hope for the best photographer, paperclip monitor and expert at breaking anything technical then expecting Scott to fix it!

I'm into all kinds of music the more obscure the better (my music taste is definitely better than yours šŸ¤ŖšŸ˜œ) with my fave band being The Wonder Years.
