The Acorns have long been focused on honing their sound to a unique degree, and this two-track EP stands as a strong testament to that effort.
EPs
A playlist that feels somewhat nostalgic or reminiscent or other moments, but that consistently pushes you outside of your comfort zone & creates entirely new thought patterns & ideas to ponder.
Soundscapes built around meandering vocal melodies, with little to no clear language use, but rather, an underlying intention to connect with audiences on a deeper, emotional & spiritual level.
Think Band Of Skulls meets Fleetwood Mac. The sound is brilliant, heavy & infectiously melodic – stunning to consider this is all a one-take live show; right there in your living room.
The album explodes onto the scene with infectious, energizing guitars & drums, supported & guided by a leading vocalist who was surely born to be in a rock band.
He’s giving us direct insight into his process with this release. As a critic, this is fascinating, and as a music aficionado, it’s exciting & different than anything we’re used to in this genre.
A uniquely conceptual collection that bends & breaks just about any of the supposed rules regarding genre & style.
The way tiiiger has managed to fuse so many different building blocks into something that flows so naturally is superb. A creative at his best.
Think riots at a carnival or circus, immense pain mixed in with ignorant bliss & energetic joy, all connected & confused – uncertain what the future really holds.
A two-track bonanza, set to immediately take many listeners back to their teenage years – when punk-pop was the soundtrack to our carefree lives.
The emotion grows throughout, drawing you in further, filling you with an overwhelming sense of possibility.
You get a sense this music comes naturally to the artist, which, combined with these folk-rock, acoustic ska rhythms & vibes, makes for a totally enjoyable EP.
