Free Galaxy are a Coventry based four-piece alt-rock band, taking inspiration from the likes of The Smashing Pumpkins and Foo Fighters to Milk Teeth and Slaves. Their latest single 'Leave Me' was released last week and, alongside the two singles the band shared last year, solidifies the band in a riff heavy alt-rock genre.
"Leave Me" instantly instills a sense of 90's rock and grunge music, with palm muted guitars and a quieter tone to accompany a more sombre tone in both vocal delivery and lyrical content. The verse builds quickly into a much heavier chorus, which stays true to the harmonic nature of the bands vocals, with a loud hook followed by an almost rap like delivery on each repeat. Although the song is simple on the surface using standard guitar/bass/drums/vocals, the way the dynamics change with each section is well crafted, creating an interesting listen.
It is clear what the band are trying to deliver with this song, and I believe they did a great job. You really get a feel of angst which any teenager can relate too and any one older can listen and think about how gross being a teenager is. A song that leaves you with a feeling of anger more so than joy, but in a good way.
