The playful lyrics tie in with the pop-punk melody, a song that will be sung by thousands of fans every night. The catchy tune oozes through listeners ears, whilst Alex Gaskarth sings lyrics relating to the classic Disney film, Peter Pan. Somewhere In Neverland has All Time Low written all over it. The Reckless And The Brave is definitely a track to add to your summer playlist. Alex Gaskarth then belts out “ So long live the reckless and the brave/I don’t think I want to be saved/Our song has not been sung/So long live us”, automatically making a connection between the band and the fans by using the word “ us”. Lyrics such as “ Looking back at a life on the other side/I realise that I didn’t fit in/Didn’t hate it but I didn’t quite relate it” shows that the song stands not just for his feelings and emotions, but also represents the band not yet being content with where they are.
You can immediately hear how Alex Gaskarth’s vocals have grown over the past six years. It was seen as “ too poppy”, and “ not like their old type of music”, yet we all know bands change their music style every so often. Dirty Work, All Time Low’s previous album, received multiple negative comments surrounding the bands new sound. However, singer Alex Gaskarth stated that they would “ …make an album that we felt reflected the best aspects of our previous releases.” From start to finish, the band have created a fresh new album, merging the sounds of their older albums together.ĭon’t Panic starts with the hit single The Reckless And The Brave, yet a poppier start gives out a negative vibe around their new album. This time around, All Time Low were back with their older label Hopeless Records, making fans presume their older style of music was going to make a return. Unfortunately, Dirty Work didn’t get the initial response that the band were hoping for, and they therefore ended up back in the studio, conjuring up a new album. Following So Wrong It’s Right were albums Nothing Personal and Dirty Work, two albums which definitely showed that the band were trying to do as best as they could in the music industry. After All Time Low’s breakthrough with So Wrong It’s Right, there was nothing but pressure on the four young men from Baltimore, Maryland to be the best pop-punk band in America.
