“Before It Gets Better” by minimum champion, helmed by the talented singer-songwriter. Nicholas Lopardo. Known primarily for his prowess as a drummer, Lopardo has stepped into the limelight to touch and enthrall.
“Before It Gets Better” kicks off with guitar tuning underneath the texture of smacking drums and grinding guitars. But what really grabs our attention is Lopardo’s energetic and passionate vocals. His energetic and passionate vocals take center stage. The lyrics touch on themes of frustration, being stuck in a phase, and self-discovery. He sings about “forgetting” who he is and being silent. Yet his voice has a soft folksy vulnerability which makes him very approachable. The way he sings about making mistakes again and again “before it gets better.” And that is really what the title of the song is all about. He is actually embracing the process while submitting to the fact that he isn’t right.
Nicholas Lopardo draws inspiration from iconic bands like Green Day, The Wonder Years, All Time Low, Moose Blood, The Gaslight Anthem, and Van Halen. Fans of these bands are likely to appreciate the distinctive blend of influences present in “Before It Gets Better.”
Nicholas Lopardo shows us why he transitioned to being a frontman in “Before It Gets Better” once more. His versatility and talent are beyond the drum kit. If you have a penchant for rock with a gritty edge, minimum champion’s latest release is a must-listen.
