This instant appeal has propelled the band to arena-sized heights, and Young is now well versed in commanding the stage as a consequence. ItРІР‚в„ўs how they have survived indie rockРІР‚в„ўs wilderness - cooking up a feast of sugar-coated pop hooks doused in guitars. РІР‚ВTeenage IconРІР‚в„ў follows without the slightest hint of a pause. But when they get it right, they get it really right.And itРІР‚в„ўs a barrage that never lets up. The band comfortably sit in that middle ground of neither good nor bad for these moments, leaving their impact as fleeting. With the bulk of the album being they slower songs, the album slowly loses its momentum and becomes harder to listen to the further in you get, ending on a whimper with the lifeless РІР‚ВSomebody ElseРІР‚в„ўs ChildРІР‚в„ў. The band simply doesnРІР‚в„ўt inspire passion with their slower numbers in the same way that the faster ones do. Whoever wrote the lyrics clearly wasnРІР‚в„ўt feeling very creative that day, coming up with the juvenile rhyme of РІР‚СљsexРІР‚Сњ and РІР‚СљexРІР‚Сњ. ItРІР‚в„ўs so repetitive, listening to it really doesnРІР‚в„ўt paint the band in the best light. The worst of the bunch is the second single on the album: РІР‚ВPost Break-Up SexРІР‚в„ў. The most awkward point in the entirety of the album however is РІР‚ВFamily FriendРІР‚в„ў, which builds to not much at all as it concludes with a wall-of-noise for a crescendo. РІР‚ВWetsuitРІР‚в„ў and РІР‚ВAll in WhiteРІР‚в„ў, the latter presenting itself as the groups best U2 impression, become awkward to the point where you become conscious of how long youРІР‚в„ўve been listening to the song for. But something doesnРІР‚в„ўt quite work with the entire РІР‚Вswooning anthems with girl-group beatsРІР‚в„ў gimmick. ItРІР‚в„ўs easy enough to imagine the VaccinesРІР‚в„ў slower songs being belted out by drunken crowds. He sounds ominously similar to BastilleРІР‚в„ўs Dan Smith. I spent the first half of the album trying to work out who he sounded like, as theirs a familiarity to his voice.

Justin Young vocals seem to soar, when they are challenged to keep up with the more upbeat numbers, but when the tracks are slower is performance uninspired. Both songs are absolute anthems and seem to belong in front of thousands of dancing fans at a festival. It was actually part of the bandРІР‚в„ўs first demo with them re-recordeding for the album. РІР‚ВIf You WannaРІР‚в„ў was released just after the release of the album. Both РІР‚ВWrecking Bar (Ra Ra Ra)РІР‚в„ў and РІР‚ВIf You WannaРІР‚в„ў were the most popular songs on the album and the bands enter discography, receiving radio play. Without that infectious energy, in their music they seem to wanderingly drift through without any real purpose, leaving the music forgettable and a laboured listen. RobertsonРІР‚в„ўs drumming alongside the busting guitar align to perfectly fit, that just makes you want to get up and dance.Р”Р„longside, РІР‚ВNorgaardРІР‚в„ў, РІР‚ВWrecking Bar (Ra Ra Ra)РІР‚в„ў and РІР‚ВIf You WannaРІР‚в„ў is their most inspiring work.

My favourite track on the album, РІР‚ВNorgaardРІР‚в„ў is the perfect example of this. Pete RobertsonРІР‚в„ўs drumming is the real backbone of the entire album, and a key aspect of the infectious nature of their sound. One thing that is very clear is The Vaccines are at their best when they are rocking to pulsating beats.
