Ratham Stone... Where do I start with these guys? Well I suppose with how their music has found it's way to grace my ears. I got a follow from them on twitter which prompted a conversation with (it turns out) the lead singer. I checked out the link on their twitter from my phone, (YES thank you for having it easy to access and ready for my ears) which was a cover of "Pumped Up Kicks". I actually like it better than the original. (yep i said that!)
I downloaded the freebie songs they had on their facebook, a few were originals and some covers. That started a quick addiction to their music. Three days later I bought "Enough to Last" & "Hearing Colours".
I lean a little more towards the "Hearing Colours" album. Maybe because there are more songs I can relate to? More than likely. Gonna share the ones I listen to most often by them, they're actually on my FUN playlist. You know that list that has all the catchy songs that get you pumped, or singing along. That just evoke some sort of emotion. Don't laugh, you know you have a playlist like that.
"Grab The Gold" - I find that this one is probably a top go to for me when I want to listen to them. It makes me wanna dance around, not just tap my foot to the beat, but seriously jump around dancing. 'Darlin grab the gold' come on it's just down right catchy.
"Anywhere Away From Me" - This one gives me that taste of angst. '...I burn the bridge your walking, you can try but you can't stop it, take your old apologies anywhere away from me.' I find it fits perfect for those I hate the world moments. Obviously some dancing to the riff on this one too.
"Eastbound Train" - 'a white horse has lost it's meaning' I feel this way sometimes. Ok maybe more than sometimes, yes i'm slightly jaded. Listen to the lyrics you'll get it.
This last song I'm throwing in because I just love it.
"I Left Love" - 'I packed my truck with all my shit, can't believe I'm doing this...' Yeah. This one I like for reasons I'm not sure just yet that I'm ready to get that deep with y'all.
They have some really nice collaborations, and shit check out their cover of 'Paradise' by Coldplay. Really I most definitely recommend these guys. At the very least go check out the free downloads and decide for yourself. www.facebook.com/RathamStone www.twitter.com/RathamStone

May music keep your heart beating... Like it does mine.
