We are sitting at crossroads
here. At times Third
Degree sounds like an underground Grunge band and then it
gives off a Kings of Leon-type vibe. With the length of this record, it’s only
fair that the album sends its sound in several different directions. Flying
Colors sets themselves apart from the typical Rock group in the manner that it
possesses facets of all sorts of tones and emotion, where similar bands have
one or two tones or moods to them. The same can be said of the Pop genre as
well but, that is a story of a different day.
Flying Colors gives off a
positive vibe of soothing rock tones. If in this case, you judge a piece of
work by its cover, then you judged correctly. Though each track is not your
typical 2 to 4-minute ear-worm, it feels more sophisticated.
The longevity acts as a
storyboard of sorts, except, there is no clear-cut resolution in this tale. It
is just pure relaxation and enjoyment for anyone looking to be entranced by
“Cadence” or journey through “Guardian.” So long as the listener comprehends
that they are in for a musical ride of their life, nothing but happiness will
arise.
The band knows how to capture its
audience and bring new listeners on board. They do not start their album with
any particular extreme one way or another in terms of notation and lyric (or
lack thereof in some songs). They simply let the emotion and music guide them through
the minutes of each track.
