It\u2019s a sound I\u2019m not usually too much of a fan of but I quite enjoyed this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The guitars to open the record in <em>Rewire<\/em> are quite nice and rocky, and the vocals are a cross between <strong>Arctic Monkeys<\/strong> and <strong>Oasis<\/strong> in style.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><em>What\u2019s the Use<\/em> and <em>Lost a Friend<\/em> were the standout tracks for me. They\u2019re more melancholy and show off <strong>Joel Smith\u2019s<\/strong> vocals, which particularly in the latter, are similar to <strong>Will Ghould<\/strong> from <strong>Creeper\u2019s<\/strong> and this really pulled me in alongside the more ethereal sound. It\u2019s a very relatable song.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">We get some more cool riffs and basslines at the start of <em>Wolf<\/em> and I love the lyrics, they come across as very uplifting about making the kingdom yours and overachieving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The synths on the lyrics \u2018<em>all I ever wanted<\/em>\u2019 in <em>Thunder Strike<\/em> were timed perfectly as they sounded almost like they were singing the lines in a higher pitch, it worked well and really stood out. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you like the more indie punk side of rock, then you really should listen to <strong>Corrella<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">There\u2019s strong vocals, some lovely drums holding everything together, cool synths understated bass lines and slick guitars.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\/*(function(d, s, id) {\n  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;\n  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n  js.src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_GB\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.11\";\n  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); *\/<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/altcorner.com\/reviews\/review-corella-a-beautiful-way-to-lose\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Corella released new album A Beautiful Way to Lose on September 18.
