Forgottensong’s “Shirts And Skins” immediately reminds me of the work of acts like Vertical Horizon and Incubus. The fuzzy guitar provides a solid counterpoint for the vox, while the deliberate pace of Forgottonsong ensures that anyone listening in will be eagerly devouring whatever they serve up.
While the song is built upon the tradition of earlier pop rock, I think that the ways in which Forgottensong weaves Shirts And Skins together is something that we have never heard before. I’m excited to hear more of Forgottensong’s vox and thoughtful instrumentation in the years to come.
We have previously covered Forgottensong’s City of Thieves.
