Talking in regards to the new lower Diarmuid Comerford (Lead Singer/Guitarist) says – “The thought for ‘Buddies Like These’ took place from a dialog with my 15 yr previous son – ‘You’ll be able to’t simply go as much as individuals, say hey, and make mates. It is rather more complicated as a consequence of social media standing and cliques’. I really feel this sentiment is echoed in related challenges and anxieties round forming new friendships as you undergo life”
“Buddies Like These” brings again nostalgic vibes for me, lengthy stay the guitar trio!
The brand new single is simply their second since 2020, nevertheless it sounds so rattling healthful for me because it’s laced with loads of swirling guitar and a sound that jogs my memory of the early 2010’s when this sound was on a resurgence.
Vocally it is robust with the highlights coming in the course of the refrain, and this for me is when the monitor is at it is peak with these heat guitars, robust bass and crisp drums appearing virtually as a backbone for the vocals to be laid upon. The pleasant fast bursts of guitar within the breakdown earlier than the refrain is a genius addition, however the monitor actually involves life within the halfway level the place it is extra like Biffy Clyro’s sound!
