You’re
at a concert, sweaty and bushed. Bodies grind on yours and to be honest you
couldn’t care less if you passed out there and then, because what’s more frustrating
than waiting for that one song that gets your blood pumping. This is that song,
strikingly uplifting, leaving you feeling utterly inebriated (basically
intoxicated beyond reason). Centuries is everything you want in a rock song:
it’s sharp, eternal and crazily strident. If you’re a fan of FOB, you’ll love
this track; it’s ridiculously unforgettable, mind-blowing and adrenaline
pumping, a song to enjoy with avidity and ardent respect for electrifying rock music.
Admittedly it doesn’t have the reverberating riffs that leave you dumfounded
and crashing your ears to the stereo, screaming with complete devotion to a
band’s sound; it’s not hard-core rock. Nevertheless it grinds together that
soul-destroying, perfect combination of collected artistry to bring you a sound
to match our expectations of what music really is: a sound that enriches the
listener with a bristling, whole-hearted love, and a deep, emotional connection
made simply from a bunch of noises.
