New Discovery: All New Atmosphere

I finally found a new band to introduce: All New Atmosphere from Woodbridge, New Jersey. 


First of all, All New Atmosphere are: Alex Farkas (Vocals), Chris Petronzio (Guitar), Juan Melendez (Bass & Vocals), Brian Boxley (Guitar) and Chris Dorocki (Drums). They began making music together in 2012 what I honestly didn't expect. When you listen to their self-titled EP (released on April 20th 2012) you could think they've been playing together since forever.

The first song on the record is called Better Left Alone. I suppose the title speaks for itself, sometimes it's just better to leave people behind and move on without them. The first thing I noticed while listening to this song is how remarkable Alex's voice sounds. I mean, he hits these high notes as if it's nothing, if I tried that it would sound like....yeah well let's not talk about my lack of talent in singing but move on to the next song instead.
Hangin Over is one of my favourite songs on the EP. It's fast, catchy and makes you want to dance around. What I don't really understand is this one line where it says "
I'm hanging onto twenty one and even if she tries to leave, I'll never never let her." Who or what is twenty one? 

Song number three is called All The Same and contains some damn fine guitar parts. I know that I usually focus a whole lot on lyrics and the singer so it's time to say that this band has some very talented guitarists who turn their music into something really special. 

I belong to the girls who have troubles showing who they really are. The girls who tend to pretend to be somebody else because that makes them think people will rather like them. The girls who hide their passions. Ladies, that's bullshit. All New Atmosphere seem to agree because their fourth song, Colors, is basically about that. They keep asking why you hide your colours because they're "a beautiful work of art" and they also keep asking "why you go and change them when you're perfect the way you are".
In other news: We're all great just the way we are and I really love that bands spread this message through their music. 


The last song, Falling Without A Parachute, is about the moment in a friendship when you're not sure anymore whether you're still friends or not and what happened to lead to this situation. You think it's your fault that there's this weird tension so you even ask for a second chance ("If I asked for another chance id wonder if you would say yes?") even though you know that it probably won't work out anyway ("I'm pretty sure when this is over, you're gonna turn your back"). 

Apart from this EP they covered some cool songs which you should check out, too:

Bruno Mars - Locked Out Of Heaven and


Adele - Set Fire To The Rain

Now it's time for you to go and check All New Atmosphere out because a) they make beautiful music, b) they're really talented and c) they deserve all the support.
