Speak your heart- This is how we communicate
Speak your heart- This is how we communicate CD (Engineer records)
After sitting and absorbing Speak your hearts’, this is how we communicate. What first strikes me is that their actually pretty clever. Their obviously heavily influenced by the emo/screamo scene and this is evident in the music, but they’ve taken it upon themselves to step away from the other 2 million whinging wagon hoppers in the UK (Its not exactly rocket science). By no means am I saying that Speak your heart are the only guys playing this sound, but their certainly the first I’ve heard. Trading distortion and squealing guitar hooks for an acoustic guitar sound, the band back this up with pounding drums and clearly, a lot of heart. They fall somewhere between a mix of Dashboard confessional, Rufio and Taking back Sunday. Although I’m not so keen on the whiney vocals, this band brings a breath of fresh air to a scene which is currently knocking on deaths door. FLETCH
