About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Rock
- Description: If Somos was a pop punk band when it formed in 2012, then the Boston-based trio is now a full-blown guitar pop band by comparison. For singer and bassist Michael Fiorentino, guitarist Phil Haggerty, and guitarist Justin Hahn, that evolution came naturally. On their third album, Prison On A Hill, Somos sound like the mellifluous intersection of The 1975 and Alkaline Trio. Gleaming synths and '80s-style percussion steer songs like InchAbsent and LostInch and InchYoung Believers.Inch Yet despite that, the album still carries the energetic spirit of their breakout debut full-length, 2014's Temple of Plenty. Just listen to the blissfully anthemic InchUntraceable Past.Inch Fundamentally, Somos are writing pop songs; they just happen to be intertwining guitar-driven rock as they do so.The fact Prison On A Hill exists at all may come as a surprise. In 2016, Somos announced they were going on a hiatus, the result of exhaustion from constant tours. They quietly invested more time in other jobs and local activism efforts. Meanwhile, Fiorentino and Haggerty began writing music for an null side-project - that is, until it became clear those songs were meant to be Somos songs. InchIt's funny,Inch says Fiorentino. InchWe didn't think the hiatus would be this short. But once we gave ourselves the space to write music free from a project, we started writing Somos songs again.Inch Their efforts spawned two standalone singles in 2017, InchStrangers On The TrainInch and InchPermanently Lost.InchFree from expectations or outside pressures, Somos found themselves doing what they were always drawn to writing songs, ignoring genre expectations, and, above all else, having fun as friends. You can hear all of this in Prison On A Hill. Recorded with Jay Maas (Defeater, Bane, Title Fight) in Boston this past winter, the tracks seem to come effortlessly, as if Somos fused the youthful energ
