If Tim Burton ever had the chance to create a band
then I’m pretty sure that My Passion would
be that band. My Passion have a look that’s
a bit of a cross of Edward Scissorhands meets The
Horrors, with their tight black clothing and big
black emo hair cuts that must take hours to get
right each day and a pot of eye liner plastered
on each members face. My Passion certainly have
the look and everything about them seems so well
thought about and professional from their myspace
design, promo pictures, merchandise and cd covers,
it seems like the band have spent maximum time at
trying to get everything right and have totally
succeeded.
But what about the music I hear you ask? Well
the bands new single 'Day Of The Bees' is such
a strong song, a song that is going to help catapult
My Passion into superstardom. The band describe
their sound as electropopmetalpunkdance and that’s
exactly what it is a big mixture of all those
music genres mixed together for a truly unique
sound that sounds like the randomness of The Horrors
mixed with the synthesized sound of The Sohodolls
and the angryness of The Blood Brothers, seriously
imagine them 3 bands music thrown into the blender
and mixed together and My Passions music would
be the final result.
During 'Day Of The Bees' Frontman Laurence Rene's
vocals sound so much like those of Johnny Whitney
from The Blood Brothers in places, the electronic
synths have the feel that’s going to fill
a dance floor and get it moving from side to side
and the guitar riffs are just as big rocking and
rip roaring as rock music should be.
If you think My Passion could be one trick pony's
and have got lucky with the final result seen
in 'Day Of The Bees', then head over to the bands
myspace and listen to the other 4 tracks on there
as they are all of a high quality and prove just
how hard working My Passion are. They are a band
that need to be taken seriously, the band have
everything going for them, they are raw, rocking,
melodic, energetic and sure know how to fill a
dance floor and give people the time of their
lives. Give 'Day Of The Bees' a listen and get
involved in the next big thing whilst they are
still playing the intimate toilet sized venues
across the country because if you leave it too
late you will miss your chance of seeing these
guys in the small venues as they are destined
for arenas in the very very near future.
My Passion are definitely a band I will be watching
very closely throughout the rest of 2008 and I
suggest you do the same.
5/5
