Flowers In May by Stay Free

 

So, Stay Free are back with a new track called Flowers In May, and I've spoken about Stay Free quite a few times now, and I really do love this band so I was pretty excited to hear that they were releasing a new song. So, I thought why not bring you my thoughts on the track! So here we are! 

From the intro to Flowers In May I didn't know if I was going to like it or not, but I have found with Just Want You (their single prior to this one) that the intro wasn't my favourite but it did pick up fairly quickly. And, from the snippets, the band had posted on socials I was quite impressed with the song, so it was just that the intro wasn't necessarily my favourite thing ever. But, I wasn't willing to let that deter me, Stay Free are a solid band so I knew if I just trusted them then they'd impress me! We got 10 seconds in and faith was restored, I knew they wouldn't disappoint! 

The chorus on this track is incredible, and that is the real winner. I'd be worried if I didn't like the chorus to a track, as normally, I can always like the chorus of the tracks and that does tend to be the strongest part of a song, and it's an insane chorus on this track. It's pretty powerful, and it packs a punch. 

The more I listen to the song, the more I like it, and I love the rhythm of this track, and it does have change and depth within the sound. I can really get behind it, and I do like it a lot, I think it's got some nice lyrics, and it's really catchy like the rest of Stay Free's releases. I do like this, I don't know if I prefer it to Just Want You, but I do like it! 

The more I listen to it, the more it grows on me, and I can certainly see myself reaching for this song a fair bit! It isn't my favourite Stay Free release, but I still like it. I would still recommend it, and I still think you should go and check it out! 

Overall, I'd give the track a 4 out of 5 lemons. It's a good song, not my favourite, but I'm going to listen to it a lot more and see if in the next week or so if my opinion changes, and I'll update you in a 'My Thoughts On Songs That Came Out Recently...' post. I would 100% recommend Stay Free though, and I can see so many people loving this song. It's super powerful and catchy, it's really enjoyable to listen to and I'm still going to be listening to it a lot!

 Seems like it was only last month we were doing this, but here we are! The Lemon Awards are back, this is where we take in every little thing that's happened with music, and we give awards to the best! I'm very excited to be bringing you this again! Every year, this get's bigger and better and is always the best post of the year! Most categories get 3 awards 1st, 2nd and 3rd! However, the best release gets 5 just because of the amount of releases! As always, there are physical certificates for the winners! I will in time hand these out to the bands, as I see them, and the one I'm unable to see, I am more than happy to post the certificates, and if some bands want them sooner with how unpridcable the future is, again, more than happy to send them!  So let's get into this! The 2020 Lemon Awards!  I have tried to make this as small band orientated as I could, however, there are some categories where big bands just had to make a little appearance.  Best Release;  10. W

Bath Salts by Holygood

                                         The wonderful lads that are Holygood are back! On Friday they released their new track, Bath Salts. I swear Holygood are on top of the game currently. They’re really out here proving that they are a band that deserves so much more attention. They’re a band who you need to check out because they really are phenomenal. Of course, we all know Holygood are one of my favourite bands so I was very excited to hear they were releasing a new track! Although the title may suggest that this either 1. Holygood really branching out their merch game and not releasing a song instead releasing bath products or 2. Suggesting that Holygood were a big fan of bath salts and decided to write a love song for them. However neither of them are the case, instead, Bath Salts is a belter of a track with so much energy and change that it’s likely to impress many. Bath Salts is a bit different to the other tracks released by Holygood, it's similar to Killing Giants whi
