Song of the Day - "Love and Violence" - Third Tme Luckie

Riveting percussion, the sweet kick of the drum sets the tone for this bass wrecked, guitar driven track . "Love and Violence" feels carefully crafted yet stealthily arranged. The track puts the punchy bass to good use to keep up with the driving drums. "Just a whisper away with another round of hollow apologies... Won't you please come back to me" Wavy vocals under the crush of deftly wound guitar. "Heard it all before" The guitar continues to sting.

Third Time Lucky is a 3 piece post pop punk band hailing from the South of England. TTL consists of Chris guitarist/vocals, Andy bassist/vocals, and DJ. Carl the drummer. The name emanates from learning from one's mistakes. I relate.

They comfortably melt both genres with an even balance of elements of pop and punk. They are creating a vital sound. While they "Shut out the outside". Lyrics examine the dichotomy between amore and disdain The every reaching question mixing o love and contempt . A curious dissection of a relationship ready to implode or keep going. A private conversation between the only two that matter in their entanglement.

The bass cooks against a shot of electronica. Perhaps the masculine and feminine colliding. The emotional battle wages on. He sings " It's never been easy." Truthful love never is. The fierce drumming that shook us in now take us out.

Song of the day - The Big Swirl - Barney Cortez

Wild opening sequence draws you in with a sweep of psychedelic, cowboy energy. barney favors Stetson looks btw. Eclectic guitar riffs match the lyrical sass and elegant horn accouterments. Barney comes at you with silky smooth vocals that belie the hard truth as he tells a little story about his journey. He thought he should call this track Runaway but The Big Swirl spews intrigue. He sing about being a coke a cola freak and the failure trap. So he Runs away. "The Big Swirl" emanates from a song by "Sir Rockaby", Frank Black tune. The particular use of the term moved Barney. He told me, " " It's what he calls the sky and the universe and I came to use the phrase as the spectrum of human emotions and experience. Sort of like a rebirth." This is deep and poignant kind of like much of Barney's music and though process. Barney imparts a casual vibe but his songs are ripe with world wariness. He has a groovy vibe sport

They are playing in several local Philly venues drawing crowds with only 2 secured singles out. They say an EP is coming soon. “Contol” snapped and popped into my finely tuning auditory system. The level of sophisticated twists in this melodious song about contemporary angst is right on point. The aspect of pretending to be in control anchors this self admittedly personal tr
