He Is We - Skip To The Good Part E.P.

I actually find this album pleasant and cute with so much sugary goodness that my teeth ache after listening to it. The first single "All About Us" is a perfect pop song and is probably to great to be hit on pop radio given the moron's who program it and the drones who make up most of its listening audience.

The warm and soft production that comes off as airy and flowing allows the songs to float in the air like clouds of sound you can play in and dream alongside the creators. The band kind of walk between Paramore and the genius of Boy Least Likely Too who released one of my all-time favorite albums The Law Of The Playground. I think that He Is We is better than Paramore for sure but still have room to grow and become one of the best pop bands ever.

Listen to the brilliance of "Skip To The Good Part" a song that if I was a writer I'd just quit after coming up with the perfect pop song, as this is one of the few perfect absolutely flawless slices of pop that has ever been heard by my ears. The song from production to structure to performance to instrumentation to melody to lyrics is undeniably wonderful. It gives me that feeling of playing with soft sand on the beach on a nice day where it's not too hot or too cold or too crowded and you just can't stop smiling and pouring the sand from hand to hand feeling like you're having the greatest day of your life.

The alternate version of "All About Us" features Owl City which is a perfect fit for his twee pop leanings. I hope that this song in one form or the other breaks huge for the band because they deserve to be rewarded for being as great as I know they are.
