Five Seconds of Summer is the hottest boy band as of now, and why? They’re foreign teenage boys and have the typical ‘hot guy’ aesthetic. They released a music video for their song “Amnesia” and having never listened to them before, I decided to see what all the hype was about.
First off, the production quality is phenomenal. Whoever’s paying for their stuff isn’t skimping. They’re making a ridiculous amount of money. As for the music, I hated it from the start. The vocals are horrific. They sound like a knockoff One Direction. I couldn’t get through more than thirty seconds of the video without having to turn it off.
The four young men have zero talent, and are some arrogant little f’ers. “We wanted to stay under the radar for as long we we could – now is the time for us to really show the world what we’re about.” Are you kidding? Like it was so hard to stay under the radar before you paid to get famous, or pulled some strings.
Not to mention Calum Hood of the band said “Some of these countries we didn’t even know existed.” How ignorant are these guys? Damn.
They claim to have been influenced by punk rock bands, but I see no signs of this. They’re another shitty pop boy band that I pray is just some flash in the pan. However, you can find pictures of the boys clad in Misfits, Sex Pistols, and other ‘punk band’ merch you can pick up at any Urban Outfitters.
