Straight Lines
Loose Change - Straight Lines Single Review
Single Review
The popularity of Welsh four-piece Straight Lines is continuing in strengths and new single "Loose Change" is just one snippet of why this is the case. Finally breathing some originality into the UK pop punk scene, Straight Lines achieve a song that refuses to let you sit still as it changes perfectly from verse to bridge with a chorus that will erupt into your memory without the try hard factor.
Lead vocals from Jenkins is the definite stand out of the song as he provides a voice that could easily one day be his signature and with the heartfelt lyrics to match it seems things are only looking up for this band. If Straight Lines continue on this path then it seems inevitable for them to follow in the same footsteps as so many Welsh bands before them, but lucky for them it seems they definitely have the potential to make the impression stick.
