The Front Bottoms - Going Grey

The Front Bottoms

Fueled By Ramen

13th October, 2017

The Front Bottoms bring something different to indie rock
with their sixth album release, Going
Grey. Experimenting with new a new pop vibe, the opening track ‘You Used To
Say’ starts with an electronic melody reminiscent of sea waves and birds in the
sky, paired with the out of the ordinary, yet relatable lyrics that the band
are known for. ‘Trampoline’ is another example of this: the happy, electronic
keyboard melody almost makes you unaware of how sad the lyrics are. The band
convey that they are not shy of progressing with this album, taking the risk of
delving into a more pop sound.
