Disconnected

I was listening to "Disconnected" by 5 Seconds of Summer from their recent EP She Looks So Perfect and I made an intellectual discovery.

The song sounds extremely similar to The 1975.

Just listen to even the first five seconds.  Now listen to "Girls" by the 1975.

The 1975 has a very distinct electric guitar sound that 5 Seconds of Summer displays in that song and that song only.

And coincidentally, both bands consist of four guys.  Hmm, some food for thought.

Heartache On The Big Screen

I received this in the mail today!! :D It's 5 Seconds of Summer's new EP and first release in the US, She Looks So Perfect - EP (US Tour Edition) and that's why this artwork is different from the regular EP release.

The album is so good!  My favorite song is probably "Heartache On The Big Screen" (an outgoing song) with "The Only Reason" a close second.

You can purchase a physical copy of the album here with:

1. She Looks So Perfect
2. Heartache On The Big Screen
3. The Only Reason
4. Disconnected*

*Physical only

Or you can purchase it on iTunes with:

1. She Looks So Perfect
2. Heartache On The Big Screen
3. The Only Reason
4. What I Like About You*

*Digital only

As you may have guessed, "What I Like About You" is their cover of the 1979 hit by The Romantics.

I suggest you get a copy of this album especially if you are into the alternative genre.
