Chandra is back with a smooth, evocative AF pop-rock track, ‘Boom’!
Band leader and vocalist Chandra Nair has been consistently delivering anthemic power pop hits, each one expressing a unique style and drive. ‘Boom’ explores the explosive nature of relationships, or rather how obsession and over-attachment tend to bring out our most destructive, explosive tendencies, no matter how chill we might seem on the surface.
The tone is one of fierce passion, driven by anthemic vocal harmonies and driving guitar rhythms and just the right amount of whimsy. Think Imagine Dragons meets Weezer; Chandra is that kind of magnetic, cinematic act that you want to dive into next!
‘Boom’ opens with chill hand drums, a cute whistle melody, and the opening verse.
‘Im like a cold stick of dynamite, Laid back and chill, but likely to go boom…..’ Chandra describes himself here with witty, yet vulnerable prose; his tone is urgent and passionate. As the verse unfolds along with guitar strums, we keep launching into space with Chandra’s commanding vocal overtures that keep the tension red hot.
What follows is an excellent guitar solo, laden with emotion and soul. The tone of crushing resolve and determination, a knowing that while this connection is explosive, bordering on destructive, it’s also totally worth giving yourself into entirely.
‘Boom’ exudes with this fantastic balance of chill and passion; Chandra’s magnetic charm, panache and breathtaking vocals keep you engaged and grooving all throughout. Rich, clear production makes for an immersive listening experience from start to finish. This is definitely one of the most fun power pop tracks we’ve come across this year!
