ASC2NT debuted earlier this yr with the groovy Love Me Do, displaying a powerful set of vocals and a comparatively old-school method. New single Candy Satan offers them a foul boy makeover, mixing rock and hip-hop components into the brew. Whereas this showcases their versatility, the music tends to mix with many related boy group efforts.
On the subject of this particular music type, Candy Satan is above common because of its vocal firepower. The refrain is a disappointing little bit of nothing, however the verses and pre-chorus inject a welcome sense of drama. There are moments the group sound like Beast/Spotlight — particularly in the course of the energy observe that ushers in every refrain. Sadly, the music’s most fascinating instrumental second happens throughout its transient breakdown in the course of the bridge. This phase illustrates what Candy Satan may have been if given a bit extra oomph. If you happen to’re going to throw electrical guitar into the combo, you may as nicely go full bore and ensure the percussion echoes this depth!
