It’s not easy to categorize jointheinternet, and perhaps, it is not something we are even meant to do. You see, the Californian outfit bathes in eclectic indie and soul influences while drenching everything into retro goo and elegant, sparse electronic elements. The result is a piece such as ‘Nothing More to Lose’, a song that’s not quite disco, not quite alt-pop or indie… we’d say it is standing proud in the inter-genre continuum, showcasing jointheinternet’s acute artistry.
Self-defined as a ‘rock band’, jointheinternet sheds some light on their influences and roots – it is clear which space they are coming from. A quartet with lyricist Marvin Emmanuel Dominguez at its helm, the band might start from rock’n’roll territories, but it sure likes to navigate freely around it. ‘Nothing More to Lose’ is the perfect example of that, more akin to an alt-pop gem than to a fuzzy, guitar-powered piece.
In fact, jointheinternet confirms our suspicion, by stating: “We chose this as the leading single because it’s a standout track with a high potential for universal appeal among fans of indie rock”.
