Single Review: Never Satisfied

2017 Battle Of The Bands national champions Pale Lady have hit another home run with their latest single; Never Satisfied. Contrary to the song title, you can tell these four young guys who hail from Wellington are having shit loads of fun playing this fantastic song.

Marking a significant change away from the bands previous releases, including pop-punk interpretations of well-known classics, Never Satisfied sits gloriously in no man’s land between other commercial and alternative styles. It’s a multifaceted arrangement with excellent tempo and dynamic changes, which provides ample energy to get the crowd up and dancing.

Pale Lady is predominantly a party band and you cannot help but jive to their contagious grooves on display throughout this absolute champ of a track.

Laid back guitar playing during the verses contrasts nicely with upbeat and powerful riffing in choruses, build-ups and other refrains. There’s even a 60’s Batman inspired melody thrown in for good measure. Throughout their clinical execution of numerous styles Pale Lady keeps it all together to provide what is a comprehensive and match winning release.

Although keyboards and guitar solos can at times get a bit glam rock chaotic, there’s really not much to be faulted. Make sure you check it out today.
