'Young Blood' if you will. That's not only the name of their hit-single, but what they actually are to the music industry. A New Zealand band formed in 2008 released their debut album, Passive Me, Aggressive You, in 2010. It debuted at number one in New Zealand. The album features ambient rock music, psychodelic vibes, and euphoric pop-rock. The only down part is there are really only a hand full of solid songs, but those six or seven songs (13 tracks) are pretty impressive and are hopefully a sign for what is to come from them. I should do a Post-Show Recap for them as well. I saw them this summer in Philadelphia for the 104.5 Radio free show with The Airborne Toxic Event. The Naked and Famous was up there on my list of best perfromances. I recommend this band to all of you!
I do really enjoy their music and am excited for a sophomore album. Half of this album sounds amazing but the other half is just mediocre to good. If they can get a complete album of epic, then they'll easily have a ten out of ten, but for now...
This is a 7.5/10
