Album Review: We Are The In Crowd - Guaranteed To Disagree EP

On first look it would be easy to dismiss We Are The In Crowd as just another pop rock quintet following in the footsteps of Paramore, but that would be too easy. ‘Guaranteed To Disagree’ is full to the brim with hooks and melodies, guaranteed to get teen girls singing their little hearts out, crafted and recorded by Zack & Kenneth (All Time Low, Jimmy Eat World) to perfection.

Tay Jardine storms straight out of the blocks on opening track ‘Carry Me Home’, displaying flawless sugar coated vocals, against surging power chords. A clear indication of how the band means to go on. Guitarist and singer Jorden Eckes is just as powerful, helping to deliver perfectly balanced melodies and dual vocals alongside Tay. ‘Never Be What You Want’ features Will Pugh of Cartel, whose vocal style fits snugly into the track, offering a lot more than just a throwaway guest vocal.
