Take into account The Gaslight Anthem, Wavves and Girls formed into some sort of super group. The Rebel Light may be the outcome but surely this band has summer patted down and ready to ride the high tide. Foster the People come to mind as well, however The Rebel Light concerte a tricked out synth and horn section, which I would applaud. As complex various layers of instruments can turn out, a high Southern California trust is installed to a harboring extent. 'Strangers' seemingly drips of California sand, water, sweat and the Huntington Beach Boardwalk.
What may strike anyone as obvious is the main sound circulating around the radio waves, or in this case SoundCloud. Fairly typical and not at all life changing. Yet The Rebel Light contradict a leering eye concept. Yes, 'Strangers' walks out as another possible "summer hit" and at equally invites a junction of fresh air. Maybe the slight horn section has something to do with that notion.
Do not get me wrong, I can not be the only one hearing an inch of pickup from 'Pumped Up Kicks".
No matter the process, The Rebel Light confiscate a noble pull with 'Strangers'. First and foremost without noticing, easy going and full of ocean air.
