Massive Throwback : These Bands Ask You To Dance Along For Their Comeback 

This year, particularly these past few weeks we welcome some popular pop-rock bands who decide to do the comeback. After Linkin Park, Paramore, and All Time Low bring new colors to their music, these bands from early 2000s are ready to get you dance along to their brand new restart. 

The Killers 

This band surprises us with new single “The Man” which totally unlike any other previous songs they’ve ever made before. Significant usage of synth and 80s disco effects. There is not even a trace of pop-rock on their newest artwork. However, luckily their decision doesn’t trigger any debate among fans. They get positive reviews and support it seems. 

The Script 

It’s been a long time since we last hear about the band. When usually they create pop-rock songs with lyrical strength. The Script offers fresh tunes with the beats you can dance to, just like what overrated Despacito (song) can do to you. How do you cope with this, fams ? 

OneRepublic 

One Republic had given the hint that they will be more into dance-pop genre since years before, it was shown on their last album “Oh My My” (2016). This year they confirm that more on the danceable singles release regularly each month. All the singles are the result of collaborations with some new names from EDM world.

Massive Throwback : MGMT 

Several years before Foster The People even formed and peak the billboard with their “Pumped Up Kicks”, the duo MGMT first introduce us to the combination of psychedelic rock and electronic pop in 2002. The syncopated bass lines, cloud light vocals, and funky synth beats play their parts on each songs. By producing unique kind of music, MGMT conquered the world in 2007-2008 by featured in well-known music channels, such as BBC, Rolling Stones, Last.fm, Spin, and even nominated as best duo performances in 52nd Grammy Awards. 

In May 2017, through their fan mail newsletter, MGMT announces good news for the fans as they plan to release new album this year titled as “Little Dark Age”. They also release new video teaser and also perform some of their new songs in Beale Street Music Festival Memphis 2017. While waiting for the new stuff, let’s throwback to one of their hits. Sounds a bit familiar, huh?
