We Were Beautiful - 'This Town' EP review

We Were Beautiful – This Town EP

Track listing

1.     This Town
2.    The Wolves
3.    Death Do Us Part
4.    Jealousy

 After supporting the likes of Lower Than Atlantis and Deaf Havana, the bar was set high for Liverpudlian rockers We Were Beautiful’s debut EP but it’s fair to say that the band have easily outstripped expectations with 'This Town'.

                From the very first note of 'This Town', the record flows effortlessly in a string of upbeat choruses and beautiful lyrics that highlight the discernible influences of Biffy Clyro and Funeral For A Friend – a doubtful combination that works perfectly in crafting a masterpiece of a debut that will certainly charm fans of every genre. Fantastic heart-felt belter 'Death Do Us Part' juxtaposes brilliantly with 'Jealousy', a heavier tune that will induce instinctive head banging and have you singing it for the rest of the day.
                Not a single second of this superb record is simply average. It’s clear that We Were Beautiful have incredible talent and the future looks promising for the band who look prepared to pull out all the stops on their voyage to get balls deep within the heart of the alternative music scene.
