Miss Mediocrity
Quickly rising up the Perth music scene, Amberdown have been nailing their thunderously catchy rock tunes all around town alongside the likes of Kids In Glass Houses, September Sun and I Said The Sparrow.
Now, after a reboot, the five-piece have released their debut EP cramming their powerful live show into a tightly recorded mix. Title track Miss Mediocrity kicks things off with a groovy bass-driven verse and a soaring chorus highlighted by Daniel Connell’s vocals. The track itself is a superb example of what follows – punchy chords, complementary drums and finger-lickin lead riffs. Disaster proves to be Connell’s strongest track, taking his vocal range to clear heights, while Lost Your Way will have Aussie guitarists frothing. Finishing strong, Inside 2009 is the most entertaining track of the album providing a smooth combination of addictive drum fills, backing vocals and attitude.
There’s a huge future for the Perth boys as they continue the fight to prove that rock isn’t dead.
