What You Want, Bliss?

Track Review by Toni Todaro

Formulaic American pop tunes haven’t been intriguing since the mid 90’s. Henry Ford, assembly line style song writing, became the goal of the industry. An art form boiled down to a recipe, the ABBA method of song math. Modern day songwriting naturally bucks institutions. Hook obsessions thrown. Verses lead to verses. Prehook? No need for folk tradition.

What You Want embodies these ideals, a meandering schism of flowing melodies and rhythmic paths of the voice. Bliss365 shows signs of a new psychedelia emerging. Painting pictures of his drug use with a sense of vulnerable confidence.
