Much like “Piano Sonata No. 1: I. Allegro in…

On Wake Up Call, Thomas Priest is able to create an energized emotive track that immediately draws listener in with charismatic vocals and a taut instrumentation. Whether it be complex drum lines or sizzling guitar riffs, the backing beat is able to provide ample highlighting to Thomas’s lyrics. A back and forth between more contemplative sounds and a furious, electronic-infused guitar/drum dynamic keeps the momentum high until Priests concludes his…
