KieTheVez
is a synth-pop band that sounds very similar to that of Depeche Mode.
This is traditional style synth-pop music without delivering anything
new. It's very good, but nothing really different. The production is
very clean and smooth with a crisp edge. The music is created with electronic
sequencing, drum programming and harmonic keyboard melodies. It's rather
upbeat with a positive and light feel to it. It's got a bit of a dance
energy to it, but is very melodic as well. The vocals are accented and
clean without distortion, but still don't quite have as much range as
I would like. They kind of sound the same on every track. This in turn
makes all of the songs kind of sound the same. There's not a lot of
differences from one track to the next, even though they do include
elements that allow them to have slight changes in their sound. Some
of the tracks are a bit more energy packed and seem as if they could
work on the dance floor rather well. These are the ones that stand out
more for me because I like a little punch to synth-pop music. There
are also a good helping of slower paced tracks that are kind of boring
because they basically drag along without ever pulling you in. But everything
on this album does blend together very well and nothing here is out
of place. There won't be any tracks that you will want to skip past.
If you're a big fan of Depeche Mode and bands that sound like Depeche
Mode, then you will want to add this album to your collection.
