New EP from Farewell, my love, they have a new vocalist named Ryan the last vocalist had some issues/problems so left, in a way yes Ryan does kind of change the sound of the band, but in a good way. He sounds like the old vocalist in a few ways but his vocal range is definitely different. The band still kept the original sound though, no one can copy this band and if they did, it really wouldn't sound the same or come close to Farewell, my love.
"Mirror Mirror"
First song it shows Ryan's vocals and how his vocal's sort of
influences the new sound of Farewell, my love. If anything I’d have to say
this song vocally is one of the best on the ep there's just nothing wrong with
this song.
Breakdown:
Cleans: Ryan isn't like the old vocalist in anyway style/form
wise his vocals are different and very talented. It kind of fits the band a
little better than the last singer, not saying the last singer was bad, he was
pretty awesome as well.
Instruments: One thing that doesn't change much in Farewell, my
love the instruments seem pretty fast and they speed up to make the song go a
little faster.
"My Perfect Thing"
The intro is different but highly enjoyable, sort of sounds like
Ryan has a complete different range in this song. This song lyrically kind of
sounds like a love song, guess the title and lyrics match up pretty well
then.
Cleans: Ryan's vocals sound a bit different than the last song,
like a whole different range of vocals.
Instruments: Sounds a bit soft, still has that speed flow to it
though.
"Skip The Memories"
This song kind of makes me think of something All Time Low would
write lyrically and at the intro kind of gives that feeling in a way.
This is a great song none the less, Ryan's vocals are higher in this
song.
Breakdown:
Clean: Ryan's range changes again... Sort of. His vocals are a
bit higher than they were in the other 2 songs, another favorite vocal wise.
Instruments: The drumming sounds fast in this song, well faster
than the guitars from what i can hear.
"It's My Life"
Wow, i really haven't seen many bon jovi covers but the ones i
have seen are not anything compared to this one, It's spot on and Ryan's vocals
somewhat match up to bon jovi's he tries get them as close as possible and you
can tell that, he does a good job it's not 100% but it doesn't have too be.
It's a great cover none the less! Instruments are spot on though.
Breakdown:
Cleans: Ryan definitely tries to get his vocals as
close to bon's as he can, now of course he's not going to be 100% on the vocals
because his range is a bit different. The background vocals are a
great addition as well.
Instruments: The instruments are pretty spot on, they have that
bon jovi feel to them also.
"Just Another Soul (Acoustic)"
This is the acoustic version of this song, it was the
last song on the first ep. This sounds okay, probably my least favorite song
because it was on the last ep and Ryan's vocals kind of make it sound
different and I’m not a huge fan of the acoustic songs, that's just me though.
Breakdown:
Cleans: Ryan's vocals just don't compare to the old vocalist on
this song. I enjoy his vocal range highly both of them, but just something
about Ryan singing this song doesn't feel right.
Instrument: Acoustically this song is decent with the
guitar, I’m sure if it was a raw guitar it'd sound different and maybe somewhat
better in a sense, not a huge fan of acoustics being recorded through studio.
Rating: 8/10
