EDENTHORN – 'Matter Of Opinion'

Single Review
Upbeat, anthemic and positively charged stadium rock according to the band’s own website….let’s see then what you have got for us with this new single release.
The 4 piece from the North East of England released their debut album in 2015 and have been touring extensively since, well right up until that dreaded virus stopped us all in our tracks. Uniquely formed by two pairs of siblings so I guess there is some inherent telepathy in their songs.
You would be forgiven in thinking that the band had recorded this in their garage thanks to the atmospheric start before the main production fades in. Positively charged…tick, Upbeat and anthemic….double ticks. Yep this song has you tapping your feet almost instantly and with a melodic chorus I can see this becoming a belter when the band get back to playing live.
Hot on the heels of a 2020 2nd place as “Best New Band” in the Planet Rock polls the band have a well written, recorded and produced offering. And if this is the standard that Edenthorn have set themselves for the rest of their new material then I expect it to be received very well by their existing and no doubt new fans.
