hooky

This, it’s a riff, and then it’s a hooky riff with a cool melody over it.

Angular riffs, clever-clever lyrics and big, hooky choruses were the order of the day.

And don’t we all need a big healing sing-along moment with “The Middle” with the hooky reassurance that everything will be all right, all right?

Balancing hooky dance-rock with more experimental forays into electronica and even ambient music, they pepper their lyrics with references to online relationships, chemical dependency and wry, self-aware humour.

“But I was like, I think people love when you do that because it’s weird and funny and hooky. It makes you remember the song more because it’s not correct.”
