Remember when you would put on a song from Bowie or Billie Idol and immediately the track transcends you mentally to a whole other locale? Well, Artistic Echoes has that type of song for you today – just add a modern command to its beat and a lead vocalist who will give Panic! At the Disco and Ryan Tedder a run for their money. It is “Rose Tinted Eyes” by Seprona – an Indie music Pop Rock band based in Liverpool England.
“Rose Tinted Eyes” has a storyline that metaphorically illustrates how often one can look at life through unrealistic lenses to numb the inevitable. When Daniel Badger sings the line: Take me home or some place alone / I want to know / How many times can you give that chill, to my bones / Serpents lurk just to take my throne, you can try / You won’t break my heart of stone, the listener is already falling in love with that vocal melody, but that catchy hook married to a fever-pitched bassline just makes you sigh! Moreover, the rich harmonies and layered texture created by ascending instrumentation, synth FX, and stoked guitars makes this track an immediate replay.
This should be #1 right now on Billboard’s Hot 100 Chart, simply because what this band has that Panic! At the Disco and Tedder may often sacrifice for our commercial-addicted music industry is personality and emotion, something that Bowie and Idol never sacrificed. Daniel Badger, Louis Birchall, Chris Woods, Niall Blanchflower, and Adam Maher are quickly becoming the new OG’s of Pop Rock!!
This song will “recharge those batteries!”
