Belong...

Check out new The Pains of Being Pure at Heart single Belong. It’s the title track from the band’s second album due March 9 and though I really should know better than posting this, I cannot help being a tiny bit anxious about the album, as (in my opinion) both Belong and Heart In You Heartbreak are among the weakest songs I’ve heard from the band to date. And by that I DON’T mean that the songs are bad. They are not ever remotely close to being that; but they just don’t quite seem to reach the glorious heights of almost every track on the debut. And if you try to be honest and stop being biased for a moment; weren’t the Higher Than The Stars EP and both tracks on the 7" single Say No To Love vastly better than these two album previews? Honestly? Oh well. Not much one can do about it anyway. Instead I plan to spend the next month biting my nails hoping there was nothing to worry about after all...
