Grab two hits hot off the charts this week with new DLC from Thirty Seconds To Mars and Walk The Moon!
Thirty Seconds To Mars returns from a five-year hiatus with their latest album America, featuring the hit single “Rescue Me”. The song combines elements from pop, rock, and dance music by mixing electronics and samples with guitar riffs to compliment lead singer Jared Leto’s powerful vocals. “Rescue Me” debuted a week prior of their album’s release, however Leto performed an earlier version of the song in a 2012 documentary about the band. In less than a month, the music video for the track has raked in almost 20 million views, while the song itself charted on Billboard’s Hot Rock chart. An eclectic mix of 808’s certainly shakes things up and ensures variation for drums, while chord changings on guitar call for precise fingerings if you’re looking to achieve 5-star status.
Thirty Seconds To Mars is currently in the midst of their international Monolith Tour. For more information about the band and for tour dates near you be sure to visit www.thirtysecondstomars.com/tour
Off their fourth album What If Nothing, comes Walk The Moon’s current single “Kamikaze”. The song features synths and drum machines paired with a clean guitar track which blend together to make for an irresistible hit. “Kamikaze” also marks the fifth Walk The Moon track to hit the Top 10 on the Alternative chart. Frontman Nicholas Petricca’s soulful singing is sure to give the vocalist a run for their money, while the guitar’s laid-back groove sets the tone for the song. However, its screaming melody shines throughout the chorus giving the guitarist the opportunity to shred.
