Starseed - See through Your LiesStarseed – See through Your Lies

Starseed are a tasty little rock band who are influenced by a wide variety of bands such as Stone Temple Pilots, Soil, Stone Sour and many others and they have recently released their new single ‘See through Your Eyes’ which is taken from their new album ‘Peace Machine’.

‘See Through Your Lies’ is a massive guitar driven anthem that really does hit all the right notes and kicks major arse from the off, as the song progresses the instrumental work gets better and better which hooky guitar riffs, banging drums beats and not to forget big basslines which leave you wanted to punch more than just the air, the vocals from Russell Spence are beautiful and soaring and really does help the song stand out in a positive way.

Unlike most singles Starseed have included two extra tracks here and the first one is ‘Love's War’ the song starts with a banging drum beat and progresses to be a really positive track however the instrumental arrangements are random throughout and from one second to the next you really don’t know what you are going to get but that is part of the whole Starseed magic.

The final track ‘Alone’ is a long running track lasting just over 6minutes and it proves to be the most melodic track out of the three and yet again continues that whole Starseed random routine where one minute things are at a steady pace and then the next things are fully stripped down.

Overall Starseed are a band worth watching out for as this single clearly shows they have a lot of potential in the rock scene and the fact they have just played Download festival can only of boosted their confidence.

5/5
