Treasure’s newest mini album is a type of tasks the place each tune is stable however none stand out as classics. There are worse issues to launch, and consistency is all the time an asset even when the music tops out at a “B” or “B+”. A number of songs might have acted because the album’s title observe, and Treasure appear to know this. At this time, they’re promoted The whole lot as a follow-up to Paradise.
The whole lot carries a equally upbeat power to its predecessor however leans additional right into a rock sound. This isn’t new territory for Treasure and the style all the time suits them nicely. The observe is sprightly and well-constructed, delivering a number of refrains that hit with equal energy. The manufacturing principally stays out of the best way, although I recognize the old-school rock’n’roll beat that underpins verse two.
Whereas simplicity is The whole lot‘s appeal, I want it discovered a approach to construct towards greater peaks. The finale has a enjoyable chanted sense of catharsis however the best way the tune is constructed constricts its potential to swing for the rafters. Moderately than explode, the refrain exhales and coasts. This can be a completely sound alternative from a songwriting perspective, however sacrifices some sonic pleasure.
