Suburban Key Party - Seven Billion People
Alternative/Alt. Rock, Pop
Virginia, United States
Overall Impression: Undeniably catchy and gloriously hook-heavy, Suburban Key Party's rousing "Seven Billion People" is a fantastic indie-infused alternative rocker that is both superbly performed and equally well arranged. With its charm-laden lyrics and feel-good nature, "Seven Billion People" is one of those highly listenable tracks that is so utterly easy to invest your time in, it has the spirited performances to back it up and both a great sense of melodic awareness and rhythmic drive.
Strongest Point(s): The lyrics are certainly charming and wonderfully articulated and they're made even more inviting by the highly amiable vocal performance. The arrangement is well crafted and abundant in detail, there is a clear and well-implemented focus on melody and the way in which each and every individual creative element of the track has been intricately woven together makes for a richly textured arrangement that makes fantastic use of tastefully layered lead guitar, subtle synth elements, and brilliantly defined vocal harmonies.
Target Audience Appeal: This is definitely a tune for the alternative/indie rock lovers and I can certainly see fans of these styles having a great time with "Seven Billion People".
Artist target suggestions: Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Stereophonics, R.E.M, Counting Crows, Blind Melon, The Cure, Greg Dulli, Manic Street Preachers, The Wallflowers
