Embarking on a journey through the corridors of indie music, Roar's 2010 debut EP, "I Can't Handle Change," is a treasure trove of '60s-inspired power pop gems. Each track is a mosaic of melodic rhythms and introspective storytelling, with Owen Richard Evans, the mastermind behind Roar, baring his soul on themes of transformation and the complexities of societal expectations. The EP's heart is its titular track, a poignant number where soothing guitar chords intertwine with lyrics that plumb the depths of emotional turmoil, offering a sonic embrace to anyone who's ever felt the sting of change.
Delving into the other tracks, "Just A Fan" stands out with its shadowy undertones, presenting a narrative that delves deeper into the psyche, a testament to Roar's deftness in weaving a tapestry of moods. This EP, though compact, packs a punch with its varied tones, each song a chapter in an ongoing story of self-discovery and the human condition. It's an album that doesn't shout, but rather whispers directly to the listener's core, resonating with a truth that only the most insightful of songwriters can articulate.
In the grand tapestry of indie music, "I Can't Handle Change" by Roar is an understated marvel, a record that may have flown under the radar upon its release but has since become a beacon for those who stumble upon its profound offerings. It's an EP that speaks to the universal experiences of doubt and growth, cloaked in the warm, inviting tones of power pop. Years may pass, but the emotional resonance of this EP ensures that it remains a relevant and touching exploration of the human spirit. -
