Poignant and hard-hitting, this social, and emotionally charged juggernaut sends a message of how to deal with global panic during a time of uncertainty.
Created during our recent massive social and political transformations, including the panic toward awareness of global warming, Angeles titled his EP "The Balance" after the social/political overtones influencing him during the writing process. In many ways, the songs are a reflection of Angeles's musical opinion on how to deal with the daunting situations.
Angeles has a beautiful gift for mixing clever lyrics along with smart hooks, presenting reliably well-made and earnest tunes, which hark back to the golden age of radio-friendly alt-rock. But Angeles's mixture of styles also gives him a sound of his own, which may be the sound of the future. With comparisons to such a diverse group of artists as The Avalanches, Chet Faker, Kendrick Lamar, The Black Keys, Kamasi Washington, David Bowie, Grandson, Mumford And Sons, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Waylon Jennings, and Radiohead, Angeles's sound can only be described as unique. All in all, Angeles brings unapologetic and true feelings into communication.
The new EP is composed of five different songs. The song selection was built around the title track "The Balance" because of its global sentiment. Going from thought-provoking lyrics over heartfelt melodies to the dirty, garage band chorus, driven by growling vocals, this song encompasses the alarmed temperament of our current, financially, and environmentally threatened world. The other four songs tell stories that fit nicely as subcategories under the blanket of The Balance's big picture.
When asked what drove him to produce this new album, Angeles answered, "I went through several personal hardships during these years, including the loss of my father to cancer. I became very depressed with a sense of powerlessness, and couldn't stop dwelling on the meaning of life, or the lack thereof. I live in my head more than the physical world, so to cope, I armed my mind with strategies to accept… everything. One such strategy I found was to practice living in harmony with an environment I can't control, by appreciating the act of balancing my actions, expectations, and emotions. Hence my title, 'The Balance.'"
His song "Over This" is an anthem for being over anything in life, especially relationships. A modern rock ballad that is performed as an Electronica, R&B Rock Hybrid, "Over This" is undoubtedly destined to be the breakup song of the summer. The official music video for "Over This," is now available on YouTube.
This powerful collection of five songs, including "Ever After," "Blow," "Over This," "The Balance," and "Safety Off" was performed, recorded, and mixed by Angeles at his Plow House Studio, with mastering done by Sandy Chila, who co-produced Christina Aguilera's song "Twice" on 2018 "Liberation" c/d and co-wrote the song "Do You Want to Come Over?" by Britney Spears on her 2016 Best Pop Album "Glory."
A portion of the proceeds from every purchased download of 'The Balance' will go to the Center for Disaster Philanthropy and the CDC Foundation to fund those in need during the COVID-19 Pandemic, as well as the Great Australian Animal Victims Fire Appeal to help rehabilitate the animals and their ecosystem in Australia after the recent wildfires there.
