This edition of LITM Rock Picks brings to you guitar solos you will fall head over heels with to songs that will take you back to the punk rock scene of 2000s and more. The list features Allan Jamisen, CAR287, and Bear Jr.
Allan Jamisen - The Coalition
Starting off with a thunderous electronic rock sound, ‘The Coalition’ by Allan Jamisen is the kind of song that listening to once will simply not be enough. The instrumentation of the song is far from monotonous, including elements that you simply will not see coming. Alongside the dark, mysterious electronic rock sound, the song takes on some jazz elements with the sax. These characteristics give the song great, surprising textures. The robotic vocals layered the non-edited ones give an interesting touch to the track. Taking you into dystopic worlds with its sound, the song is a must listen if you are looking for something new to obsess over.
CAR287 - Back and Forth
A solid, punk guitar riff starting off the track, ‘Back and Forth’ by CAR287 will take you back on a nostalgic path owing to its similarity with the 2000s punk rock sound. The instrumentation is magnetic, supremely upbeat, restless, and will have you headbanging into the air in no time. The drums in the song are central to its personality, as its thunderous, dynamic patterns will have you so very hooked. The guitars in the song are no less with its impressive layering, and driving quality. The vocals with its grit and energy amazingly complement the instrumentation of the track. You need to add this track to your playlist right this second, or else you will be greatly missing out.
Bear Jr - Breaking The Chain
Holding within it the rock sound of the 2010s, ‘Breaking The Chain’ by Bear Jr is fresh, infectious in its rhythms, and might just be what your playlist is missing at the moment. The song starts off with a sparse guitar riff and quickly takes on a sound that will inevitably have you mouthing “wow.” The instrumentation is raw and is so emotive and is reflective of the heart that has gone into the making of the track. The guitars in the track are simply swoon worthy and the guitar solo is out of this world and will have you rewinding again and again. The vocals are equally vulnerable, powerful and full of emotion. The song is made up of everything that makes a super hit song.
