Exclusive Review: Baddies – Bronto (Single)

In
In advance of their second album, Essex indie Quartet Baddies release new single. With their follow-up album approaching, Hit The Floor has been given an exclusive preview of “Bronto”.

The Essex band is a little similar to Transplants, due to particular drumming styles in which Jim Webster (Baddies) and Travis Barker (Transplants) perform. For example, in “Bronto” the drumbeat slightly increases in speed and volume throughout, however, still linking to the concept of the song. This gives Baddies new track more of a rhythmic dimension.

In comparison to Baddies previous releases, it has to be said that “Bronto” is an improvement lyrically and musically for the band, as it seems they have finally found themselves. You can notice this from the lyrics as they are reasonably memorable, mainly the chorus rather than verse and along with a fine tuned guitar and bass, it produces a great sound as a whole, which fans of Baddies will appreciate. For people who aren’t fans or have never heard of them before, this single will take a few listens until understanding their style of music.
 
After listening to their initial single “Bronto” from their forthcoming album, we’ve agreed that we can’t wait to hear more of this record when it’s finally unleashed onto the world and it sounds as if Baddies are a band that aren’t to be missed, so go check out their Myspace!



Note: As you can tell I wrote this review for Hit the Floor magazine, but unfortunately I missed the deadline and it wasn’t posted onto their website :’( So instead of my writing going to waste I’ve posted it onto here for everyone to read. Thank you J
