America, fuck yeah! That’s all I could think as work surprised us minions with a half day before the fireworks got underway. My happy soundtrack consists of records that won’t stop being amazing and new ones like Par 6’s new one Be Kind, Rewind; a feel good pop rock record.
As Be Kind, Rewind continues to be a part of my life, bands like Simple Plan and Boys Like Girls come to mind. “Talk Me Up” had lines on a loop that made it play like a pop record, while “Say Goodbye” was definitely similar to those “Perfect” men from up north.
The other half caused a generation gap. “Rewind” had sugary lyrics, but the music was enough to push it out of the tween crowd. But for Par 6 to appeal to a crowd that can drink and drive (never together though), then “Out of Time” will do the trick.
To recap, or rather rewind, Par 6’s Be Kind, Rewind is a record that will play better to people whose biggest stress comes from homecomings and Facebook drama. That crowd that just wants a fun, musical escape. Yup, it’s youthful rock that’s ready for you if that’s what you’re into. Be Kind, Rewind is out now, so get it!
