Neon Sarcastic: Chemistry Was Never The Problem (Review)

Neon Sarcastic are back with new single Chemistry Was Never The Problem!
(From left to right) Jamie Flanagan, Bryce Newbold, John Wilson, Joe Pasch and Adam Abbott.
The Alternative rock/rock 5 piece from Leicester are back with new single Chemistry Was Never The Problem which is their second single after Codename: Disaster.

As a lover of Codename: Disaster I was really looking forward to hearing the boys new stuff and I'm pleased to say I wasn't disappointed!

Foot tapping and fast the guitar riffs have got the song of to a great start, this seems to be a slightly heaver side to Neon Sarcastic as they've lost the more poppy feel that was their first single. I'm liking this more rock NS though one thing that hasn't changed is John's vocals, his voice is light, energetic and you can't help sing along with him. Lyrics are catchy and will be stuck in your head for agesss but that's Neon Sarcastic their single's are two of the catchyist songs I know! Though the lyrics 'Something changed, someone changed' were repeated one too many times for me. One of the things I really like is the fact I never lose the drums, there's always steady rhythm through out the song. 
It was a bit of a wait for Chemistry Was Never The Problem but it was totally worth it and I know I'll be listening to this a lot in the future, just don't make us wait so long between singles next time okay?

Next live review is........... DateNight Disco!! They had an good style and the crowd enjoyed this band more and were singing along, I wasn't. They were okay.... It took me two songs to get in to them and after that I was jumping about a bit but I didn't enjoy them as much as I did Neon Sarcastic by far. The vocals were a bit unclear and fuzzy; the guitars were good (I was close to doing air guitar a couple of times); the drums were loud and clear. All together a pretty good band but one I probably won't go see again.

Gig reviews!!! 5 to be exact. First up Neon Sarcastic the opening act. They did a mix of three of the own songs with two covers. I really enjoyed them, I was singing an jumping about, the rest of the crowd weren't so enthusiastic. Maybe it was because Neon Sarcastic were announced only three days before and they didn't really know them. I really enjoyed them, clean, clever vocals; energetic guitar; great sounding drums. I great live band and one I suggest you should go and see :)

I can't do the EP review I was plaining on as my ITunes is being a bitch :( but I have some good news, I've just found out that one of my favourite bands will  be playing the gig I'm going to tomorrow so I thought I'd give you a review of the duet single Codename: Disaster. This is Neon Sarcastic they're a 5 piece pop/punk band from Leicester. I first heard this band when one of my friends was raving about going to see them.
I loved this song from the first time I heard it, I love the energy, the lyrics, the guitars, the bass, the drums, the way it fits together, the way it gets stuck in my head all the time. Definitely one of my favourite songs and I cant wait to see them :)
