Read my take on Darling Waste

I had come across Darling Waste a few months ago when I received a friends request from this band on myspace. As I do love music, I clicked the link, and gave their sound a listen. I was instantly hooked as their music is very catching. This band exhibits a true rock sound. Musically speaking this music takes you up and down on a ride that you will not want to get off of. Darling Waste has music with the ability to hook a listener, and you can't help but to stay tuned.

Darling Waste is an indie rock band. This band with a sound that is a mixture of all things rock.
With "The Insignificants" we get a nice soft sound starting with gentle vocals accompanied with a careful acoustic guitar. Then add some percussive accounts and the song starts to pick up a bit. Enter the drums, guitar, and bass then you have a full rock sounding ballad. I really like this song. A love song that transcends distance in a relationship, whatever may be the cause of the separation. With clips of subtlety in and out of this wonderful tune, you can really feel the emotions weaving in and out of every chord. The vocals speak volumes when it comes to singing the emotions in which the lyrical lines represent. Really a masterful song!

"No Truer Life" This song has a unique start. I love music that pushes limits. This song starts out with the sound of bells of a wind catcher. Then starts in with an acoustic guitar that layers perfectly with them. Enter the vocals and we have the perfect start to another beautiful ballad. The bulk of this song is backed by the acoustic guitar, until mid song. Then a full band sound opens to expand the climax of the song. The lyrics in this song are elegantly stating that you have to live life, or let it pass you by. There are moments of wonderful harmonizing that really en captures your ears. The end of this song is like coming full circle. It ends with the same bells of the wind catcher and gentle acoustic guitar it started with. I really enjoy this song.

The last song by Darling Waste I will tell you about is "Changing of The Seasons" This song opens with a soft piano backed with a beautiful violin, and soft vocals layering the sound of this song amazingly. Then enters the full band sound. The violin shines throughout the song, never being over powered by the guitar or the drums. The lyrics of this song paint a picture of the weathering of a relationship. The sounds of this song are mixed very well and makes for a very great rock ballad. I really enjoyed this tune!
