Oh yeah, for sure. That ties right in. I feel like every song, basically, is about me, or about us, or about something that anybody can relate to. And maybe even whether you believe in God or not, just some of the pitfalls of life, and some of the things where our self gets bigger than what we wanted it to be.
We had originally, before Devin decided to leave, we started recording an acoustic album, before last summer. So we had all these acoustic songs, and the last two songs on We Do What We Want are acoustic songs that carried over. We thought it just fit so well with the lyrics of the rest of the album.
And we had never done that before, either, like soft songs at the end of the album. We do what we want, you know? So Devin wrote that song. He originally sang it, which maybe eventually we could even put out the version that Devin sang as well.
But we thought that that one went really well, so we sang it. And as far as referencing Jesus, I mean, the thing we try to do, no matter what, and this is what we encourage anybody… We do believe in Jesus.
That is just as much a part of me as breathing or a broken heart about a girl or eating or anything like that. I think what we would like to do, it would be mainly all new songs, just new songs that we want to write without a distortion guitar, without screaming, just really showcasing some vocals. I believe Devin probably, well Devin already has written some songs, so some of those will be on there. But honestly, most of it would be just new stuff.
We just want to put out an actual album. It was really hard to stop writing that record and put out a whole other record. I would love it if it came out later this year. So it is a business, and we understand that, but as soon as we can get it out, we will. And I believe we will be finishing recording, I mean, we only have to write a few more songs, or actually just record some songs that we have written, and we can have the record done. So as soon as we can get it out… If it can come out later this year, then it will.
Okay great. Shelton seems to be able to pull off anything at this point. Howl at the Moon is folkier song instrumentally. Things pick up a bit again on the piano-based A Perfect Life.
Buried Alive falls in the same class as Tide. The bass is stronger, the guitar is heavier, and the lyrics are edgier. Dance Tonight certainly lives up to its name. Piano follows the groove, and guitar certainly has its moments to shine. There are a few extra surprises that follow before the album is capped off. In summary, Shelton has topped his previous works with this eclectic collection of songs.
Further, the mix of serious and fun moments definitely provide a fuller emotional spectrum. Sensation proves to be, well, sensational. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.
