4.5.13 - New Music - One Direction

This is only a rumor, but one that I am going to write up anyways. Gotta put something up!

One Direction are apparently preparing to release the fourth single from ‘Take Me Home’, their sophomore album that only came out 5 months ago. The first few singles have done well in their homeland, and at least lead single “Live While We’re Young” debuted high in the US (#3).

“Rock Me” is a step in a more rock direction, but we’re still talking One Direction here, so don’t think this isn’t just Dr. Luke’s teenage girl version of “rock”. The beat rips off Queen a little too much for my liking, and the chorus (and breakdown especially) are unimaginative. It’s catchy enough, but it will surely do better than it should (it ain’t THAT catchy…).

It might be time to hang this album up. Plus, this better not be the sound of their next album. I don’t know what I want to hear exactly, but it isn’t this.
