SEASONS, Nineteen Fifty Eight & Montreux Fires – Live @ Fuel Rock Club, Cardiff | Review

I recently reviewed SEASONS' new EP and today I was off to SEASONS' first day of tour in Cardiff. Their were three bands on the line up these were Montreux Fires, SEASONS and Nineteen Fifty Eight.

SEASONS – ‘What Goes Around’ | EP Review

As a whole, this EP has been written amazingly from the catchy lyrics to the consistent and memorable drums beats which got me air-drumming for the whole day like any good song should. The melodic vocals and the strong backing vocals fit perfectly together and they are impressive. It’s pretty cool that a new band like this have released such a great EP after only being together a few months and I’m really enjoying their material and their songs are just extraordinary!

Balance and Composure’s new album ‘Light We Made’

As a whole the album comes together beautifully and it is a very well written album. From beginning to end, Jon’s vocals are very melodic which is a highlight in the album. The drum beats were strong and lively throughout the tracks. My favourite track on the album is definitely ‘Postcard’ purely based on the lyrics “we’re looking at the stars, connected by our constellations”.
