June's Obsession of the Month: The Cab.
Possibly one of the coolest bands I've ever heard. I want to thank the beautiful people of tumblr for helping me find them.
They are a really fun pop rock (one of those happiness educing genres) bands and have been around for roughly 5 years and they should be much more famous than they are.
Before I talk about their music, let's talk about their faces.
Mmm. Yes. Now that we've enjoyed that, let's move onto some actual reviewing.
~wee~
Their debut album, Whisper War (2008) was one of the first albums I've listen to and instantly liked in a very long time. All of the songs are fun and upbeat and you can't not sing along once you think you know the words and you're left tapping your feet to the beat before you fall asleep. All of the lyrics are the expected pop rock lyrics but I adore them and they just make me happy.
My favourite songs? That 70's Song, One of Those Nights & Can You Keep a Secret? (which has been played 48 times since I downloaded the album on Sunday; can we just? That isn't too bad... )
Symphony Soldier (2011) is possibly one of the most auditory pleasing things ever. [Thanks guys, you make my ears happy :)]
This album is much more versatile than their first one which is good as it kind of shows maturity of the band, I guess? Maybe I'm just being pretentious in saying that but the album is seriously great regardless. Versatility is good. All of the lyrics are the perfect combination of partial lovey dovey and 'I'm so over you' sassy.
Best songs? Angle with a Shotgun, Temporary Bliss, La La & Endlessly (which has the most amazing lyrics ever)
Essentially, you should go and buy their albums and listen to them all the time like I do because they will make you very happy.
