With glimmering guitar sound juxtaposed with gnarling and gritty riffing guitars, Kelley creates a sonic landscape that is once atmospheric and then harsh and grounding in his latest single, “Give It All Away.”
And the context of “Give It All Away” is a poignant exploration of materialism and overconsumption, which overlap with hedonism in society due to their extent. Kelley tackles these societal issues, urging listeners to question the value we place on material possessions and consider the impact of their actions. The lyrics strike a chord, inviting introspection and encouraging a shift towards a more mindful and sustainable existence.
What sets “Give It All Away” apart is the remarkable quality of its production. The guitar work evokes a sense of the grandeur of a natural and minimalistic life when it’s not energetic. The gnarling and gritty rock sound adds a visceral edge to the track, infusing it with raw energy and intensity.
Kelley’s influences shine through in “Give It All Away,” with echoes of The Black Keys, Led Zeppelin, Incubus, Muse, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Queens Of The Stone Age and others. These influences serve as a foundation for Kelley’s unique sound, blending elements of classic rock with a modern twist. It’s a fusion that pays homage to the past while forging a path towards the future.
