Attention, alternative rock fans! The debut EP from Nashville based alternative band Barrett, Quit Dreaming, is the type of project that will leave a great impression, with the demand of replay.
Barrett’s debut EP, Quit Dreaming, is a celebration of tenacity as much as a statement of will. The four tracks fuse elements of alternative rock and pop-punk, bringing together precise rhythms and the inventiveness of various soundscapes. With intriguing sounds and captivating vocal notes, the EP transcends genre barriers and compels listeners to dance.
Opening the EP, ‘Don’t Tell’ explores a relationship where one person is hiding things, featuring pop-punk elements and tempo shifts. The narrator highlights the allure of keeping secrets, as they may not continue forever due to the relationship’s unhappiness or fear of approval from others.
The song ‘Oh No! (Everybody Hates Me)’ is about regaining control of your incessant overanalyzing and social anxiety. The song’s lyrics, which are intended to be a little humorous, blend parts of alt-rock and R&B with a rhythmic impact. They should resonate with anybody who frequently challenges their relationships, especially those with close friends and family. This is the hardest song on the EP to not dance to out of all of the songs.
The story of ‘Passenger Princess’ delivers a powerful dopamine high. Barrett has produced music that is more akin to popular culture. It paints an image of naive delusion and daydreaming about a fictional character. I want to throw a sleepover and play karaoke to that type of music.
‘Crash and Burn’ the compilation’s last track, is an epic, alt-rock-heavy conclusion that holds everything together. The lyrics of the song touch on a number of topics, including karma, learning from mistakes, and offering constructive criticism to the former employer for their bullying behaviour. They meant to highlight the benefit of a melodic and musical transition from sweet and charming into rough and harsh in order to further convey the narrator’s mounting wrath.
Barrett has a distinctive sound that develops throughout the four tracks. The group strive to redefine pop/punk soundscapes with a touch of a new wave early 2000s’ nostalgia flavourings.
Spin ‘Quit Dreaming’ if you want to make your week ecstatic. Barrett’s finest deal is something you shouldn’t pass up. They are a fantastic example of creative expression.
