FNC Leisure is likely one of the few massive businesses regularly debuting new bands. They’ve make it their specialty ever for the reason that days of FTIsland and CNBlue, and with the most important success of acts like DAY6 there’s clearly nonetheless a marketplace for this sound. New Ok-band AxMxP (pronounced “A.M.P” and standing for “Amplify Music Energy”) makes their debut right now with a full-length album to showcase their varied expertise. From what I’ve learn multiple title monitor is scheduled, however we kick off the journey with the energetic I Did It.
Curiously, this tune sounds much less like a band and extra like an idol group. In actual fact, it’s not even clear the fellows play devices till the refrain is available in throughout the music video. I’m of two minds about this. It’s refreshing to listen to a special strategy from a band, however the rapped verses don’t do a lot for me. They’re underlined by entice percussion and are available throughout like some other generic boy band of the previous few years. The refrain is a lot better as the complete brunt of the band is available in and we transfer right into a catchy chanted refrain.
The glam rock strut throughout this section works very effectively and I’d have liked listening to it coloration the remainder of the monitor. This is perhaps a controversial opinion, however there’s completely no motive a rock band wants to make use of sampled entice beats. Your drummer is true there and greater than able to crafting an enticing rhythm. I Did It‘s saving grace is its bombastic vitality. There’s a palpable sense of swagger to the monitor and this makes it laborious to not be received over by the point I Did It has ended. It might be a Frankenstein mess in locations, however a few of these locations are fairly thrilling.
