I first heard of My American Heart back in 2005 when I was in New York
and Acey Slade gave me a copy of the bands latest album (at the time)
'Meaning Is Makeup' and to be honest I still haven’t heard the album
that much to make a true opinion on it. At the start of 2007 My American
Heart went into the studio to work on the follow up album 'Hiding Inside
The Horrible Weather', the album has already been released in America
but is not due to be released in the UK until the start of November which
is perfectly timed as the band are currently in the UK for the first time
touring with the ever popular Madina Lake and to coincide with the end
of the tour My American Heart are releasing their debut UK single 'The
Shake (Awful Feeling)' which is also a taster of what to expect from the
bands current album.
'The Shake (Awful Feeling)' is actually a pretty decent song but is typically
what you would expect from these American emo bands these days, the song
has an extremely catchy feeling about it and the singer sounds like he
would fit in with The Higher if the band ever needed a new singer which
is quite interesting considering The Higher and My American Heart have
spent most of the summer touring the states. The more I listen to this
song the more it grows on me and the more the catchy chorus sticks in
my head.
My American Heart have proved with 'The Shake (Awful feeling)' that are
as good as any other emo band in the scene at the moment, and it will
be interesting to see how successful they become in the UK. I am looking
forward to the bands forthcoming second studio album 'Hiding Inside The
Horrible Weather' and whilst I wait for the release date to approach I
am going to revisit the bands debut album.
4/5
