By: The Vamps
In their second studio album, The Vamps have grown a bit older and found their sound. Wake Up is a combination of great songwriting, spot-on musical talents and strong songwriting.
There’s something sweet about the songs that make you root for the boys in the band. The lead single “Wake Up” is about a guy who has always been there for a girl he loves, and he just wants her to realize that he exists. It’s relatable and arena ready with its scream-able lyrics.
At the same time, The Vamps also can dial down the sound and make softer music that’ll pull at your heart. “Million Words” is a song about lost love and everything that should’ve been said when they were together. The vocals sound emotionally drained and it makes it beautiful.
Final say: Pop heaven for fans. ★★★★☆
