Female-fronted outfit Merit has a new full-length out called “Arson Is For Lovers”. If you’re into powerful poprock but can’t stand the teenage drama that comes with a band like Paramore, you might want to check Syracuse, NY-based band out.
Vocalist Brenna Merritt has a pleasant voice that reminded me of Tsunami Bomb’s Agent M singing Bayside covers. Which is a good thing because I like both those bands. My favorites on here are the up tempo album opener “Cut And Run” and the title track. But the other eight cuts are more than decent as well. Hell, they don’t even sound whiny when they slow things down on a track like “Static And Satellites”!
Still not sure whether or not you’d like this? Then why don’t you just download the entire album for free over at http://www.arsonisforlovers.com and find out for yourself?
