Blame it
on September! We’ve already got
Allstar
Weekend’s new album
All
The Way on repeat at
the GL headquarters. And we know you’ll be doing the same once it
releases
Sept. 27.
Showing a more mature side to the gang, the guys promise this new
album is a big step from their first record
Suddenly
Yours. “It’s got soul,
it’s got rock and roll,” Zach tells us.
We asked
the boys to dish about some of their fave songs off the 12-track CD
that lends the perfect blend of rock, pop and dance. Which
are you most excited to hear?
“All
The Way” (The band fave)
The
sound:
A touch of jazz with a smooth flow of vocals
“My
favorite instrument is in that song. No other song on the album—or
radio—sounds like it.”—Zach
“When
I Get Paid” (The most personal)
The
sound:
A daydreamer’s anthem
“I
spent a lot of time in my life where I didn’t [even] have a
vehicle. It’s cool to think that, in the future, I might have more
money.”—Michael
“James”
(The toughest to record)
The
sound: Funk-meets-Rick
Springfield’s “Jessie’s Girl”
“It
has a really complicated first base line.”—Cameron
“Do
It To Me” (The most relatable)
The
sound: Cute ‘n’ catchy
lyrics with a beat you’ll want to blast while driving
“It’s
a simple song about when you kind of just fall for someone and you do
things that are kind of crazy.”—Michael
“Blame
It On September” (The hottest single)
The
sound: A rainy day slow
song
“It’s
a time of year when things change. The summer ends, you go back to
school. It’s a time when a lot of people are just doing their own
thing.”—Zach
