New Music from Velcro Hooks
I’m a huge fan of really great pop rock, and I think bands like Velcro Hooks are few and far between; it’s also a genre I think we all take for granted. They provide listeners with classic pop structures of verse chorus verse, yet throw in enough flair (typically through guitar style) to create some differentiation from their peers. Distinctive vocals also help to bring the pop sensibility into the fold, matched well with little moments of rock jamming (not a la Phish). These guys just write great songs, so I’m hoping that their debut self-titled album lives up to the expectations I already have in my head. Look for it on the first of April via Howling Owl Records.
