Breathe Carolina – Hello Fascination

September 4, 2009 By Max Specht 2 Comments

B002F3BP72 

Artist: Breathe Carolina
Album: Hello Fascination
Label: Fearless Records
Purchase: Amazon
Release Date: August 18th, 2009

Overall: 6
Music: 6
Lyrics: 5
Production: 7

The opening riffs off of Breathe Carolina’s sophomore album (debut for Fearless records) Hello Fascination mark a step in a different direction for the band. The implementation of real instruments in their music, moving away from the strict electronic beats of their debut It’s Classy Not Classic. Already there is a sense of hope for a band that has garnered nothing but hate from bloggers and critics around the internet, but it’s hard for a band to go from hated to loved in one day.

The opening track/lead single “Hello Fascination” has a fairly catchy chorus and strong melodies, but what really brings it down is the chunky screaming that doesn’t really fit, that’s where we find the tragic flaw on Hello Fascination. The singing is there for the most part, such as the ambient vocals on “I’m The Type Of Person To Take It Personal” or the pure gold found on the beginning of “I Have To Go Return Some Video Tapes”. Once again these two tracks are taken over by the chunky screaming that ultimately hurt and bring it down.

It’s not fair though to assume that Breathe Carolina aren’t trying to change some attitudes by their use of instruments in their music now, they are creating what one could debatably call a heavier sounding Cobra Starship. Songs like “Welcome To Savannah” and “The Dressing Room” are dance-oriented tracks that move along at a nice pace and contain catchy hooks with complimenting beats.

All in all there is a lot of progression to be done by Breathe Carolina before they can become scene-darlings. But there is potential throughout the album found in certain vocals and instrumentation (the acoustic ending of “Tripped And Fell In Portland” is wonderful). The possibilities are endless for this band at the pace they are moving creating music and hopefully they find their voice soon and the praise will follow.

Fearless Records Signs Breathe Carolina

April 29, 2009 By Bryce Jacobson Leave a Comment

Fearless Records has signed Breathe Carolina.

Breathe Carolina started as a “just for fun” side project in 2007 for two friends David Schmitt and Kyle Even. In a year’s span they have skyrocketed onto the scene with their unique blend of techno, rock, and screamo. Fresh off the road from a nationwide run on the Take Action Tour, Breathe Carolina is preparing to head out for the entire summer on the 2009 Van’s Warped Tour. Since forming they’ve toured relentlessly, sharing the stage with such artists as the Cute Is What We Aim For, Meg and Dia, A Skylit Drive, and Pierce The Veil, just to name a few.

The band is currently in the studio with renowned producers Mike Green (Paramore, The Higher, Set Your Goals) and Matt Squire (3Oh!3, Panic at The Disco, The Used). This highly anticipated sophomore album is set to release in September on Fearless Records.
