The Common Chase – Monica: Rhythmically Quaint Alt Rock

Any track which starts off with a RATM style prelude will have me instantaneously hooked. So, it wasn’t hard not to fall in love with the Common Chase’s latest single Monica. Whilst the production may be a little rawer in their almost Gothic approach to lo fi rock, there was so much emotion and momentum packed into the single that the anthemic energy hit you like a brick. However, I would have liked to hear a little more progressive rhythm to the track, the beat sits at a steady momentum throughout the melodies and bridges but what would round the track off perfectly would be a few more instrumental hooks. Yet, there’s no denying the solo which brings the track to a close isn’t intricate aural alchemy.
