Slowly building hype around their upcoming album, ‘The Melbourne Sessions’, Australian rockers Satellite Train reiterate their class and elegance with a charming and evocative single, ‘Cry’. Built over their signature friendly and pop-flavoured rock formula, the track is a slice of enlightened empowerment and lyrical honesty, drenched in anthemic melodies and fierce guitar riffing.
Michael Painter’s luscious and malleable vocals are the definite highlight here, boasting their perfect pitch and controlled intensity. When it comes to delivering a relatable and approachable record, vocals are half the job, and Satellite Train absolutely smash it. It’s not just about the sonic panorama though: ‘Cry’ also flourishes thanks to a powerful and meaningful lyrical message, aimed at inspiring listeners into self-resilience and growth.
As the Aussie band explain: “It delves into the poignant story of a young child grappling with the absence of her parents and the loneliness of childhood. It conveys a message of inner strength and trying to find joy even during challenging times.” We now look forward to ‘The Melbourne Sessions’, and if ‘Cry’ is anything to go about it, we are in for a legendary album. Stay tuned.
