The Honeymoon Suite - Calm Your Little PassionsThe Honeymoon Suite – Calm Your Little Passions

‘Calm Your Little Passions’ is the new EP from The Honeymoon suite, a band I have only just come across, the band are a five piece from Manchester and they have one hell of an infectious poppy-punk sound, with front man David Moloney’s vocals sounding all so similar to those of Patrick Stump from Fall Out Boy, in fact there is so much about The Honeymoon Suite that is so similar to Fall Out Boy and I truly believe that The Honeymoon Suite are a band that the UK pop-punk scene really needs.

The EP fires off in a really bouncy fashion with ‘The New Low’, the band play the song with passion and the song is crammed full of style, from the huge Patrick Stump style melodic vocals to the banging drum beats to the bouncy bass lines and thrilling yet crunching guitar riffs, ‘The New Low’ is a song that has been made with perfection.

The EP title track ‘Calm Your Little Passions’, is even more bouncy opening up with an very tasty bouncy bassline, once again the song vocally becomes a massive sing-a-long affair, with even the other band members getting involved with their chant-a-long backing vocals.

And the last song on the EP ‘I Wish I Wished You Well’, feels like it needs to be sped up a little bit, but overall is a really good song that has that Fall Out Boy feel about it, and it’s so hard not to get caught up in David moloney’s infectious vocal style.

I really like The Honeymoon Suite, I feel that they have an sound that many people in the UK will love, seriously if these guys were played on the radio during a hot summer day it would cheer everyone up and make them move their body for the duration of the song, in fact they have a sound that would equally go down well in America and challenge their crop off pop-punk bands, the only band I can really compare these guys to in the UK is Attack! Attack! And I feel they are that little bit better than them and that’s a big compliment as I love Attack! Attack!.

5/5
