You Me At Six has done it again, bringing out another very impressive single in the form of ‘Kiss and Tell’. Not only is the main single excellent, but the band has actually included another two tracks here to form an EP, including a hugely impressive cover of Lady Gaga’s ‘Poker Face’.
You Me At Six just seems to be able to reel out hit after hit at the moment, and with ‘Kiss and Tell’ the band has been able to put to record yet another incredibly infectious chorus. It’s a very fun piece of music to listen to, the drumbeat hits hard all throughout the track, and the guitar quality offered by the band here is hugely impressive also. The band is able to pack a lot of power into the music here, and this is something that continues with the ‘Poker Face’ cover also.
Arguably better than the original, You Me At Six is able to give ‘Poker Face’ a real rock feel, and again it is the guitar quality here that stands out strongly about the music. The vocals hit hard, there’s real venom in the guitar though, and this is what really makes the track the powerful piece of sound that it is.
Slowing things down for the final track, You Me At Six decides to treat us to an acoustic version of ‘Kiss and Tell’, and although the speed is slowed here, the quality certainly isn’t lessened. The acoustic nature of the track really does come across nicely here, providing a fittingly fantastic finish to a very impressive EP.
If you’ve been impressed by any of the previous singles that You Me At Six has released then you’re sure to find ‘Kiss and Tell’ incredibly enjoyable also, and if you haven’t already taken the time to give this EP a listen then I’d definitely recommend doing so. You Me At Six has once again been able to provide the goods here, offering up a 3-track EP that I have very much enjoyed listening to.
