'Ripping Us Apart' - Waiting Till Marriage Single Review
Waiting Till Marriage are Adam (Guitar/Vocals). Brandon (Guitar/Keys), Liam (Bass) and Ieuan (Drums), an indie rock band based in Liverpool. They released their debut single 'Ripping Us Apart' on 25th June.
The song starts with a great head bopping, summery intro that has you dancing from the off, you are straight in singing along with the "aha, aha".
Then the realisation that you're singing along to lyrics such as "I'm taking back everything I said, the past few weeks have been a train wreck on my heart". The guilt hits that you're actually partying to this poor guy's misfortune "It seems like you're ripping us apart for the fun"
A story of heartbreak that they've managed to make into a bouncy and upbeat summer party vibe! Genius! Uplifting hooks are played on both guitar and bass, then with a powerful bass solo included which i always love, the syncopated drums and expressive vocals lead to a brilliantly effective complete track.
The band said they have been working on their live set for a year and a half now, and have gigs booked including Jimmy's in August and with This Feeling in October. They've had radio play for 'Ripping Us Apart' on BBC Introducing NorthWest prior to release even and we are promised a lyric video for the single on 9th July! I think it's safe to say we can expect more great things from Waiting Till Marriage.
