“Spinning” sees Zucconi and Hannah Hooper’s voices interweaved into a promising dialogue with brave declarations of hopelessness: “It’s like I found my only child gone missing.” In comparison, “Cannonball” bursts with ceaseless confidence that has the pair wrestling with the guitars for center stage. However, the second half of the LP offers a welcome and novel honesty that the first half seems to belie. Tracks like “Enlighten Me” and “Good Morning” are catchy but boring - their significance requires focus beyond the pre-chorus, which demands too much attention from listeners. “Standing in the Sun” feels meaningless despite a smattering of engaging lyrics (“God says it’s kind of hard to believe him”) that find themselves buried under an overworked melody. “Welcome to Your Life” and “Do You Love Someone” are generic indie rock songs that fail to stray from Grouplove’s snarly sound, but nevertheless inspire an enthusiastic dashboard tap.
“I’m feeling like it’s only the lonely who know we are,” he yowls, calling listeners to unite in their angst as well as dance with it. A sure hit among recovering broken hearts, the song manages to eclipse its generic context and trite one-liners (“Am I stupid or do I want you back?”) with a snappy chorus and tender opening that practically drips off singer Christian Zucconi’s forlorn vocals. “Remember That Night,” the album’s new opener, is a nostalgic pop-synth track that makes listeners want to let go of love just so they can miss it. The album, which was originally released in 2016, attempted to build on Grouplove’s signature joyous sound - this time with the divergent undertone of looming parenthood and responsibility. Raspberry, on a ferry, I was feelin' kinda SEAsick on that boat! WHOOOA!.Grouplove, the band famous for its anthemic, rock-pop singles, has added a brand new opener to its previously released LP, Big Mess. it's a game you play with yourself to see how long you can go without getting one of their songs stuck in your head until you can't help but burst into song singing, ". it's experiencing something new for the first time every time you hear the distinction of Christian's voice belting out "I am a man, man man man, up up in the air." the second time in their beautiful set Colours. they have pieces that bring you back to a state of mind where you can fully enjoy life and not get caught up in the world, pieces that make you smile and think "What do these words even mean?" but you accept it anyway, and some that make you want to do nothing but climb up on stage and dance with them! Their music is running through a daisy field while you're soaking wet from the beach with your partners in crime. And not even all of their songs are love songs. I mean, who else has butterflies when you think back on such a thrilling and invigorating memory of Christian singing at the top of his lungs and from his heart about Hannah, a rapturous woman that chants the same loving words right by his side? The enthusiasm from the physical playing of their music is more than just a joy to watch, because it's living through each and every one of their passions and pure-hearted feelings brought through their instruments. My experiences fall in love with the experiences and pleasures I've had seeing this band live. Their music represents a spirituality in the souls who created these melodies with words that fit like puzzles. I have never heard anything like Grouplove in my life.
