I wasn’t sure how I felt about it when I first heard “Handclap” for the first time, but it really sounds great in tracks like “Complicated” and “Fadeback.” The band has come a long way from the neo soul, Motown vibes of their debut album “Pickin’ Up the Pieces.” Their sophomore album “More Than Just a Dream” moved further into a more typical indie pop sound, and while their newest record fully embraces the sound and aesthetic of pop music, it has edge and attitude to it that really make it stand out from their previous work.įrontman Michael Fitzpatrick has always sounded like Daryl Hall singing alternative to me, but he now sports a reverb vocal effect and new attitude to his singing. The self-titled album is the third studio album for Fitz and the Tantrums.
3, and remember: on Wednesdays we wear pink.Have you been looking for some new summer jams? Do you need a new album to listen to in order to get you through the work week? If you enjoyed the latest hit from Fitz and the Tantrums, “Handclap,” then the band’s latest album might be exactly what you are looking for. So, grab some wine bottles, call your friends, and gather together for this special holiday. Each song fits together to create a memorable and fitting musical compliment to an iconic movie. Though these few tracks aren’t as recognizable, each one makes a unique contribution to a soundtrack that reflects the relentless teenage drama and angst that defined high school, perfect for a nostalgic celebration. The lead singer goes on about avoiding people’s questions, halfheartedly begging “don’t ask me if you’re pretty/if you’re prettier than all of your friends/don’t ask me, don’t ask me.” The song speaks to the constant comparing and competition amongst high school girls, who can be wildly insecure.
All Too Much’s “Sorry (Don’t Ask Me)” slows down the pace a little with a more 90s grunge sound. Musically, it is the album’s best dance track, and it’s backed up lyrically as Boomkat tears down all of the Plastics of the world, chanting “rip her to shreds.” It’s the kind of empowerment that would send even the band kids into riot. For starters, there’s “Rip Her to Shreds” by Boomkat, a pop diva anthem with a funky flare. There are a few other tracks peppered throughout the movie that are worth highlighting.
