The first single release from this young four-piece from Detroit delivers a punchy piece of guitar pop.

Framed around a two-chord piano loop and some crunching guitar playing, this is a pretty ambitious stab at putting on the map.

The verse is fairly pedestrian and conventional, but the uplifting chorus has a touch of Muse about it. Frontman George Morris's croaky voice is impressive and he certainly emotes, although his "Well, Well, Well, Well"s sound a bit like a man just drunkenly murmuring rubbish.

As we go back and forth between verse and chorus, the track doesn't really seem to go anywhere, and the band is going to need a stronger melody to really capture the hearts of this nation's music listeners. But this is a good debut and it'll be interesting to see how they follow it up.
