There definitely isn't a shortage of electronic music these days, but we sure could use some more like this. It's likely that this will be your first time hearing The Electric Sons (don't worry, it's ours, too), but their sound is so listenable that you needn't take any time to adjust. Hailing from Atlanta, the band released their debut EP last year, which gained enough momentum to convince them to create another. Finally, after a year-long wait since the release of the single, "Breathing Electricity", the brand-new Chromaesthesia EP has been debuted, and it shows loads of promise. "Electronic music" is a broad term; the genre is typically very good, but, when listened to excessively, can sometimes become bothersome to the ears. The Electric Sons separate themselves from this generalization, as their newest work can be placed on repeat without a second thought. The introductory track, "Islands", brings a fresh feel, immediately supporting the band's name with layers of brilliantly meshing electronic material. Although the band was founded just 2 years ago, they sound as if they have been making music together their whole lives. There are no gaps in the album, nor are there any slip-ups; their sound is absolutely professional, as this album could certainly be thrown on the radio without any protest. As a matter of fact, if I were a record label, I would be handing these guys a contract right away. Don't think so? Just listen to their song, "Revolutionist", and try to argue that it can't be a sure-fire radio hit. The Imagine Dragons gained international stardom with their latest release; there is no reason that this band shouldn't be able to do the same with their own. Be proud that you've discovered The Electric Sons before the rest of the world does (which shouldn't take too long), and embrace the electronic ecstasy that they consistently provide with each song. Some of our favorites can be heard below, but be sure to catch the full EP on SoundCloud and support the group by buying Chromaesthesia on iTunes.
