Shark Speed
Education EP
Self-released
Street: 04.06
Shark Speed = Sharks Keep Moving + Franz Ferdinand + The Script
While the pace of most the songs on Shark Speed’s second release, Education EP, have a pace and tonal energy similar to that of the majority of the songs on VH1’s top 20 countdown there is a style about them that gives them an organic genuine vibe. The instrumentation is creative and captivating and the vocals are big and inspirational but somehow avoid giving you that middle-age, alterna-rock inspiration that gets your mom hyped up on the way to the grocery store. Overall Shark Speed does well at balancing their power pop songs with a sincerity and authenticity that make them legit.
