Five songs from this past week worth hearing.
What are you listening to?
“Evanescence’s Amy Lee has teamed up with Poppy and Spiritbox’s Courtney LaPlante on a new song titled, “End of You.” The track is accompanied by a cinematic music video. The three artists had been teasing the single in the days leading up its release, and the payoff is an epic track that shines the spotlight on all three vocalists. Lee gets the song started with the initial verses and the soaring chorus, giving off an Evanescence-meets-James-Bond-theme vibe. Poppy then sings the next set of verses in a clean voice, giving way to Lee again for the second chorus. Then it gets heavy as Poppy screams, “The end of you is the start of life for me,” leading to LaPlante’s explosive screams. The Spiritbox singer also shows off her clean singing, as all three vocalists come together at the end of the song. The track’s arrival comes amid tour plans for all three artists. Evanescence have a run of mid-September headlining US shows (tickets here), with Poppy supporting select dates. Poppy is headlining her own North American tour (tickets here), which kicked off a couple days ago, and runs through mid October. And Spiritbox will embark on a headlining US tour in November (tickets here).” (Consequence)
