Opening with a Triffids-style indie folk melody, Wrote You A Melody explodes into a chorus reminiscent of James before singer Paul Connor falls into an Ian Curtis-inspired gothic rock warble. In the hands of the right producer, this song could be a hit. Leaving aside all the things it sounds like, it has an easy-flowing melody and an epic hook, but it needs a bit of studio sheen to realise its full potential.
