Broken Social Scene’s World Sick

So awesome pop/indie rock band Broken Social Scene is releasing a new album in the near future, Forgiveness Rock Record, 5 years after their amazing self-titled album dropped. To stir up the buzz, Broken Social Scene gave away a track on their website recently, “World Sick.”

Now I know everyone has already blogged the shit out of this song, so you most likely have already heard it, but… whatever. This track is catchy and it definitely sounds very Broken Social Scene with super clean guitar lines, epic drums and of course, these guys are great at group/mob vocals.

Their sound is slightly updated but it still sounds good ol’ Broken Social Scene. The bass line is very electronic and sounds very ‘watery.’ That being said, I think the song is good but doesn’t evoke the inspiration to get up and start screaming like when I hear songs like “Fire-Eyed Boy,” “Almost Crimes,” and “Major Label Debut!” I’m excited to hear what the rest of the album has in store… will try my best not to hype it up in my mind just because they’re Broken Social Scene…
