"Sweet Dispoition" is one of those diamond-in-the-rough songs you find sometimes on Free Single. Do you remember that rush you got when you first heard the guitar gallop in on Coldplay's "Fix You"? Of course you do, that's why the song was such a massive hit. Well, this is one of those songs. The harmonising of the twin vocals when the tune cranks itself up a notch provides a brilliant chorusline that soars higher and higher into deserved acclaim. As for the general sound of the band itself, they resemble a mix between Passion Pit and U2; the latter's influence is clearly discernable on The Edge-like guitar riffs, and Bono's singing style also comes through - though with the delicacy and refinement of Passion Pit's youthful zest.
It's one of those tracks that seems to evoke summer, colour - being a teenager, and the repeated lyrics of "Don't stop till it's over/don't stop to surrender" compliment this aural aesthetic accordingly. Once I'm finished writing this I'll go and buy the album, and then investigate whatever suggestions the internet comes up with afterwards because, discovering this new area of music, this new brand of chamber rock has changed my week.
Genius reccomendations for this track were: British India; Van She; Expatriate; Red Riders and Children Collide.

Made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck when I heard it on that channel four advert. A cracking song. And a cracking review I might add.
