If you still need a little convincing, here are 12 songs to help you [...]

Género: Grunge pop. Comenté por aquí sobre Sam McGarrigle, aka Gross Magic . Este Teen Jamz EP es bruto cosa fina. ¿Y cómo pueden ser las dos cosas a la vez? Pues sencillo, el chaval reverbera el pop acudiendo a los noventa, mediante ese grunge que paradógicamente entró fácilmente en nuestros sensores, yendo más allá de una simple propuesta revivalista. Y tiene más mérito viniendo del Reino Unido. El aguijón es certero de todo el EP y Yesterdays sería un ejemplo más para [...]
