JW PARIS – SOMETHING GOING ON – SINGLE REVIEW

JW Paris is a 90’s grunge Britpop inspired three-piece featuring Gemma Clarke, Danny Collins and Aaron Forde.

Coming out of their much anticipated hometown appearance at Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Luton, JW Paris follow up with their brand new single ‘Something Going On’ .

‘Something Going On’ is packed full of grungy guitars, driving drums and a melancholic vocal hook that will have you feeling like you’re listening to Placebo for the first time in the 90’s. ‘Something Going On’ is a heartbreaking look into how we’ve become so fractured from being genuine good human beings and are now plugged into false rhetoric that we consume across our social timelines.

With lyrics like ‘Feedback of emotions, I can hear myself cry’ the song takes the listener on a journey of how all of us can’t escape the echo chambers we find ourselves in from our mobile phone. ‘Plugged in switched on, there’s something going on’ is that wake up call for us to remove ourselves from this cyber landscape, uneasy socio-economic politics and ‘plug’ ourselves back into that analogue mindset.

JW Paris draw inspiration for ‘Something Going On‘ from the sounds of Fontaines DC, Placebo, QOTSA and the darker side of Blur.
