Night Riot

I know it's random.

There's this band called Night Riot, R recently discovered them thank you Spotify!

Their songs remind me of different bands all over the place!

The beginning to their song Nothing Personal reminds me of Twenty One Pilots newer song Lane Boy. When Night Riot's song Nothing Personal beginning starts I sometimes start singing '..they say stay in your lane boy, lane boy.." haha. The beat is different of course, just similar to me.

The beginning to their song Fangs makes me think it could be a kelly clarkson or katy perry song, or some generic pop song actually.
There is something else about this song though that is ringing a bell for me and I can't put my finger on it... I may have to come back to it.

My favorite song of theirs is Contagious and I seriously cannot stop listening to it on repeat. Parts of this song remind me of the way the leader singer sings in Imagine Dragons.

They remind me of Chromeo in their song Work It. The chorus, the way he sings, totally sounds the main guy in Chromeo honestly.

The beginning of their song Don't Kill the Messenger reminds me of a kind of style Yeasayer would go for. Then it feels like it gets almost western styled to me.. then Imagine Dragons in the way he is singing. I keep going back to Imagine Dragons with them! I guess I just really like Dan Reynolds singing style. The breakdown of this song reminds me of Coldplay for some reason..

The ooh's that kick in about one minute into the song Breaking Free remind me of a sound Yeasayer would make also.

Something about the style of their song All For You reminds me of The Cure. Not the chorus though, just the verses.

The beginning of their song Tear Me Apart also reminds me of another sound Yeasayer would have. I just associate interestingly odd with them, and that's what that said to me.
The title of the song, and only the title, just makes me think of the band She Wants Revenge. I don't know of any sound similarities between them though.

Their song Pull Me Down reminds me of something, I know it, I just can't figure out what it is.. it's another one of my favorites. The whole album is just amazing actually, their album Love Gloom that is, which is where all these songs are from.

Their song Everything Will Be Alright and something about how it starts in a small way reminds me of Brand New, but like acoustic. Just how it opens.
And then the rest of the song reminds me of Coldplay song. Just something about it..

Something about their song End of the World gives me a Bear Hands vibe..

In their last song As You Are the breakdown around two minutes forty seconds in when he starts singing "..you're all I need.." reminds me of ColdPlay's song 'Fix You' breakdown. Ha.

I'll come back if I think of more similarities to other songs!
