Hurts - Happiness

Which groups such amazing business for days to get the favor of Kylie Monogue opportunity to obtain chorus?
The double e-groups from the United Kingdom "Hurts" by the composition of Theo Hutchcraft and Adam Anderson, who won the BBC Sound of 2010 poll section 4 (BBC's annual Sound of ... voting activities are high quality artists Oh!)
This year in May, they launched the first wave hit new album "Better Than Love", the song in the UK singles chart to get a 50 place finish, although the British local brisk as expected, the results did not, but groups have therefore turned visibility.

August launched the second wave of single Wonderful Life won the 21 in the UK results, other European countries (such as Germany, Denmark, Finland, etc.) are the top 10 singles chart good results. (Very high fashion of a MV XD, a quarter of the scene reminds me of Natasha Poly for Gucci ads.)


I first heard their song "Wonderful Life", I think "Better Than Love" a bit too noisy, "Wonderful Life" would be more a bit gloomy atmosphere to bring out the sexy lead singer voice.
In fact, like "Wonderful Life" the establishment of extensive use of chorus in the album be quite common, this is part of the album was criticized by some music critics, some critics point out the album are even trivial, outdated, stale lyricsshortcomings, but I think, Hurts originally wanted to create a bit retro, elegant image of it!




Do not worry about how the first music critic said to me, in fact, this album is very pleasing to the ear, sounds good, every song has a very catchy melody. 





Although the album is entitled Happiness, but the album is the electronic elements to create an atmosphere of depression, very cold tone, however, the use of chorus is rich and loud, a kind of unique sense of violation and (perhaps this was caused by some critics criticism of it!)

I like the album's "Blood, Tears & Gold", hear out the group can make a catchy melody, but can also be found, and sometimes songs of electronic sounds, chorus, echo too much, feeling a little heterogeneous and not clean enough.
Blood, Tears & Gold


I also like the last album, the first "The Water", particularly at the beginning of a simple instrument with lead singer pours out like a melancholy atmosphere of the story, and between the lead singer played the gentle melodies and subtle, muttering like a concert for this song a lot of extra points.


Overall, this is a nice album, group orientation are also distinctive style, the first album as a rookie still room for improvement, but very good job. Will be issued in Taiwan recently, I hope we can support a lot of good music Oh!
