This is their third album, and it&#8217;s a refreshing reveal. <em>Bloodshot Tokyo<\/em> has a fun and cohesive sound, reminding me of the kind of dance-rock you&#8217;d hear at a roller-skating rink. More than that, they manage to meld smooth bass lines with hypnotizing vocals and slow-burning synth. Tracks such as &#8220;Tired of Love&#8221; jump right into clean vocals with a dreamy keyboard backdrop. That is, until the chorus, where the bass and drums kick in and deliver a beat that will keep you humming the tune long after the song is over. Other tracks on the album provide excellent lead-ins and set up the desired mood, which is most often groovy. When it comes right down to it, The Dig have made a break from their past two releases and in doing so have found a style that really works.<br \/>\n<b><br \/>\nRecommended If You Like: The Cure, Apples in Stereo, Generationals<br \/>\nRecommended Tracks: 4 (Bleeding Heart (You are the One)), 5 (Tired of Love), 10 (Simple Love)<br \/>\nDo Not Play: N\/A<br \/>\nWritten by Savannah Adams on 02\/10\/2017 <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atmospheric groovy pop rock sounds make for a great third release for a band that seems to finally be finding their niche.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18173,"featured_media":55412,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,3235,3230,181],"tags":[6654,6623,6653],"class_list":["post-55411","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","category-music-reviews","category-new-music-rotation","category-rock-rotation","tag-bloodshot-tokyo","tag-savannah-adams","tag-the-dig"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/3614972383893_300.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55411","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18173"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55411"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55411\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/55412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55411"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55411"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55411"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
