Tim: End of last year, there was a Norwegian TV show called “Prosjekt: Boyband”.
Tom: This lends more credence to my theory that Scandinavian languages are mostly just dubstep remixes of English.
Tim: If you can’t fill in the rest of this introduction yourself, you’re on the wrong site.
Tim: So there we go. Yes, the five of them have names, but I’ll wait to see if there’s a follow-up before bothering to learn those, because this is roughly slightly above average.
Tom: That’s harsh, but justifiably so. That chorus goes absolutely nowhere.
Tim: Right – not a massively exciting melody, and the stop/start vocal in the chorus is a little alienating for me – a pop/rock chorus like that wants to be sung along with, and that doesn’t make it easy.
Tom: It sounds like someone’s tried to take the pop-punk sound and… hasn’t quite made it. I can’t believe that they use that same note three times in a row to end a line in the chorus: it just sounds… wrong.
Tim: Yes. Though regardless of all that, they clearly have the necessary fanbase, because they already had the ineptly-made amateur lyric video created for them before the proper video went up, so maybe we will get another. Let’s wait and see.
