This month I discovered some new music and artists and found appreciation for older songs I hadn’t before. I’m going to start a new series where I share some of my favorite music from that particular month. Music is constantly changing and evolving as our society does and each genre has a completely different sound. I hope you find some new music to enjoy.
Chappell Roan – School Nights EP
I couldn’t just choose one song from this EP because in order to fully feel Chappell’s music, you have to listen to all of the songs. Each song flows smoothly and elegantly into the other, each telling a different but interrelated story.
5 Seconds of Summer – Want You Back
This pop-punk band released their first single in two years and they surely did not disappoint. This song is unlike any of their previous music because it is slightly more pop but they still rely on their guitar abilities.
Logic – Bobby Tarantino II (Album)
It was only a few months ago that I was writing about Logic’s last album "Everybody," but here I am raving about his new album. It hasn't even been a year since his last and he came out with fresh and new music. Huge beats and lots of shade thrown but it’s Logic so who really cares?
Lil Peep – HELLBOY (Album)
I cannot believe I am saying this, because it is so unlike me, but I actually started getting into Lil Peep’s music. He has a very unique song that is unlike the typical “trap” music that is overplayed. This album is only featured on Soundcloud but it is definitely worth the listen. The song "OMFG" will break your heart because of how real and raw it is. Other notable songs include: "hellboy," "nose ring" and '"drive."
LANY - LANY (Album)
I have heard about this band for a long time and have continuously put off listening to them because I knew I would like them. This album is a cross between The 1975 and COIN, both alternative bands as well. Two amazing songs, both lyrically and musically, that I think are worth listening to include "Hericane" and "Tampa."
Spice Girls – Stop
The Spice Girls were one of the first CD’s I have ever gotten from my older sister. This song is an oldy but a goody. The song itself really isn’t that deep and definitely is just your average pop song but it’s cute to sing with your girlfriends while driving to the beach.
My Chemical Romance – Welcome to the Black Parade (Album)
I’m going to be honest: if you haven’t heard at least one song from this album, I don’t think we can be friends. This is probably one of my favorite albums of all time solely because I can literally jam out to every song. The word that comes to mind with this album is “chaotic” but in the best way. My Chemical Romance brings punk-rock to a whole new level.
