Phases is a new band on Warner Bros., but you might recognize them - they're four-fifths of the band JJAMZ, which formerly included Maroon 5 guitarist James Valentine. The rest of the group took some time off and then came back together, creating a new quartet that they describe as "if Blondie made Thriller." Signed and produced by WBR's Mike Elizondo, they'll be introduced by a three-track release next week, led by the single "I'm In Love With My Life." No audio yet, but it's been selected as a Hot Pick by KITS in San Francisco.

Once again; too bad I can only click on the LIKE button once. Could be the next Echosmith and MisterWives for me. I love that chorus like I love the 80s. Need I say? Download? Check.
The other two tracks: "Betty Blue" and "Cooler" are 80s ear candy.

A little too repetitive lyrically but this is still decent.

As for the song...the title was so American Authors I was just gonna ignore it, but dang, that's song of the summer material right there. It's almost too happy-go-lucky for me, but there's no reason this can't be a pop smash. And yeah, so what if I double posted. Guess what? SO DID KURT.  |

The singer is from Phantom Planet, and the drummer is from Rilo Kiley, so I'll give them that, but the female parts are unneccessary and the lyrics are complete crap.

I really like the bass part (I may have to try to learn that), and the song has an overall nice groove. However, I don't bode well with songs so happy and positive. I'm a Sunny Day Real Estate kind of guy. This overly happy "I'm in love with my life" crap gets to me. I hope this doesn't become too huge, or I'll go out of my mind...

This will have the same success as Pumpin' Blood by NONONO.
I do not like this song.

how high did that song get? Peak #22, spent 19 weeks Man that song was annoying/an eardrum-shredder. I can't believe it even charted on Alternative let alone nearly go Top 20. |

Man that song was annoying/an eardrum-shredder. I can't believe it even charted on Alternative let alone nearly go Top 20. I also didn't care for that "Pumping Blood". Just No. However this song is headed up the "Out Of My League", "Reflections", "Cool Kids" "Animal", "Trojans", archives for me. I also havn't come across proper sleeve art for the song, so I made my own.  |
