FM
Five Hooks
Future Power People
2004


Five Hooks is the aptly named EP from LA-area based FM: five catchy songs that showcase a range of styles, from glittery rock to the more straight-forward, and finishing with The Game, a moving ballad with accentuated vocals that evokes comparisons to Queen.

The listening experience is brief (one’s in and out in just over twenty minutes) but it’s riveting each step of the way. FM’s sound includes a number of starts and stops—some techno, some scratching even, overlaying modern musical engineering and production to traditional song structure. These guys don’t shy away from the sentimental, and the songs benefit.

Favorite Track: Track 5, “The Game”
