It doesn’t take much effort to figure out a power pop band when you see one. The name just has to click, and with The Wild Young Hearts, you immediately know what you’re going to get: rugged guitar riffs, plenty to hooks, and a seemingly unending cheerfulness. The tracks off the trio’s latest full length, Feel Good, flow from one song to the next with a proper dosage of intensity, vintage-inspired rock n’ roll anthems that will never become obsolete. There’s a good amount of disaffected ballads, of course, an empowered sensitivity that couteracts those amped-up moments of release.
