Toploader – Roll With The Punches
What is it, that makes Toploader a one-hit wonder? Dancing In The Moonlight, of course, but that was not the answer I was looking for. Β I mean: how come that a band with timeless gems like Achilles Heel, Shifting Sands and This Is The Night to its name is being neglected by radio for over a decade now? I find it hard to deal with this kind of injustice.
Thankfully, Toploader keeps doing what they do best: making beautiful music. Their fourth album, Seeing Stars, is on its way. I hope theyβll be given a fair chance with this new single, Roll With The Punches. Not a far cry from Trainβs Hey, Soul Sister, itβs a little more folky and beat-driven than their earlier output, so they go with the current musical flow. Letβs see where that takes them…
