Temposhark – Blame

• 25th Mar 2008

Blame begins as a stripped back electronic single. The sheer simplicity of the vocal work and the backing sound works a charm. Come the chorus and it’s a different story. The music becomes very majestic and the vocals become almost that of the boy band.

So there seems to be split intentions. Both work for what they are. But the song really should have picked a lane instead of trying to deliver two songs at once. Both mashed together kind of insult the other and kill the potential for each, and what is left is a rather bizarre hybrid. But it isn’t like the song is a disaster, and to fill the glass half full it is certainley different.
