Between Artistic Maturity and Innovation: “Money” by Brother Vice
“Money” by Brother Vice
The musical setting this time is Belfast. Brother Vice, an Irish trio from Armagh, recently released “Money”. While their previous works were already impressive, this release brings a strong breeze of Indie Rock meets Pop through the streets of the Northern Irish capital. Founded in 2019, the band draws inspiration from Sam Fender, The Killers, and the Foo Fighters, presenting with “Money” a musically well-thought-out piece that reflects the band’s high artistic standards in both arrangement and composition.
The song’s introduction might remind one a bit of the golden era of pop-punk, but it takes a different direction as it progresses. By the first chorus, you’re closer to indie rock, perhaps even pop rock, than in the initial bars. A touch of nostalgia in the sound adds extra colour to “Money”, allowing the listener to reminisce a bit without losing the powerful punch of modernity.
What one might still wish for are vocals that follow this direction. James Feely, the band’s lead singer, rises to this challenge with aplomb, delivering an impressive vocal performance. The intensity of the emotional delivery reaches new heights almost every second. Furthermore, it is evident that he knows how to appropriately balance when to hold back and when to intensify. In this interplay, where Neil Mone (Lead Guitar) and Aidan Watters (Drums) also shine, the word “excellent” can undoubtedly be used.
The track was recorded, mixed, and mastered at Manor Park Studios, with Neal Calderwood on board. With “Money”, Brother Vice impressively demonstrate their ability to merge musical elements from various genres into a coherent and innovative work. This release not only underscores their technical and artistic maturity but also positions them as significant players in the contemporary indie rock scene. The future developments of this band promise to continue evoking both musical and emotional resonance.
