Savak Drop New Single, Will Get Fooled Again

I was already a big fan of what Savak have accomplished through the years, but with their latest, they seem to be hitting the right notes, especially as I’ve been in a 1st wave emo mood as of late. There’s something in here that certainly feels a kinship to that area, with bright guitars and melody working in unison to build this powerful melodic core. But, even there, the band seem capable of adhering to the darker edges of rock n’ roll after the punk explosion; something in this song feels forlorn and brooding, particularly in the way some of the ways the vocals fall over the syllables. Just another reason to pencil in Flavors of Paradise on your LPs to buy; its out March 1st.
