Album Review: Losers & Kings
BY: Meredith Chaffin
After the success of their debut album, Let’s Be Animals, The Downtown Fiction have finally released their sophomore album titled Losers & Kings. I was very anxious to see which direction the band would take this record. I was pleased to discover that The Downtown Fiction stood true to their pop-rock sound, while also putting out new and improved songs that fans are sure to love.
“Some Place on Earth” is the first song featured on Losers & Kings. This song was an excellent choice for the opening track of the album. Not only does it give the album its name with the lyrics “This is the song that we sing for every loser and king,” it also has an anthem feel to it with the marching drumbeat. The song allows listeners to get excited for the rest of the album.
“Hope I Die on a Saturday Night,” the second song on the album, has a laid back vibe to it. While remaining upbeat and catchy, I feel as though it can be played at a party with friends. “Don’t Count me Out” is another song that I enjoyed. This song balances stronger rock sounds and fun pop sounds. I think this song will be an excellent one to see The Downtown Fiction perform live in concert.
Slowing down the album, is “Santa Cruz.” Although this song is slower than some of the others on Losers & Kings, it is not dull at all. Including essential rock instruments such as guitar and drums was a great way to tie a softer song into the album without boring the listeners. However, the softer side of the album ends with the song “No Generation,” which uses harder vocals and instrumentals.
“Big Mistakes” is another one of my favorites from Losers & Kings. The song builds up to a faster, more upbeat song throughout the middle, then goes back down to the normal tempo of the song. The song features a little bit of piano giving the song a different sound than others on the album. Although the song that contributes the most to the album's new sound is “Right Where We Left Off.” With acoustic guitar and tambourine as the two main instruments used, it is the only acoustic song on this rock album.
Losers & Kings is a great second album for The Downtown Fiction. Fans will appreciate how the band kept their pop-rock sound, which fans fell in love with on Let’s Be Animals. Losers & Kings is an album that I would recommend to anyone looking for a new summer album to rock out to.
