[TuneOTD] Steal The Scenery - MONSTER

Artist: Steal The Scenery
Genre: Dub/Pop/Rock
Location: San Diego, California. US
Label Type: Indie
Record Label: Emeral Grand Records



From San Diego, California come Steal The Scenery with their new single, ‘Monster’. This is the first track from their sophomore album ‘The Art of Breaking Hearts’, the follow up to 2010’s debut album, ‘All Or Nothing’.

The single demonstrates the diverse array of musical tastes that have influenced the band and their musical style. You can pick-up the inspirations from a pop-punk background as well as sways from a more dance scene. The tune is certainly creative and catchy with separate input from all angles of the band complimenting the soft pop vocals of lead singer, Bobby Frausto. This is also in addition to a hard-hitting beat incorporating disco-dubstep splodges and switch-ups.

From a purely lyrical point of view, the Monster in this aspect is referred to as being that past relationship partner who is regarded as somewhat a manipulator at times, whilst also attaining that attributes of that loving, caring kind. The twist with this song is that it is written from the perspective of the monster, rather than the expected perspective of the analyser and ex-partner of the monster.
