The
guitar riff at the start of “Worthy” lacks complexity, but not personality and
not compatibility with both the spoken-word start or the melodic vocals that follow.
Later in the song from KIDS, an uncomplicated piano plays the role of the
guitar, but this time during band vocals confessing their unworthiness (starting
at 1:35). In comparison, “Worthy” addresses meaningful subject matter and also includes
segments with skillfully layered instrumentation.
KIDS
are a five-member band from Kentish Town, North London. Lyrically, “Worthy” begins
with low-resolution spoken-word vocals. The purpose might be to distinguish the
selfless concern for his “sweetheart”/”queen” from the more self-consumed description
that follows. KIDS explain:
"’Worthy’ is an admission of guilt to the negative aspects of masculinity. It talks about the self-destructive side of dating without an end goa l- not being ready to commit and in the process hurting yourself and others around you because of your own insecurities. It is a discussion on masculinity, how a lot of men are taught to fight through their problems without fixing or resolving the issues that cause them."
The
melody of “Worthy” is upbeat and sunny, despite functioning as a vehicle for a
lyrical passenger that is honest but sullen. The song is the title track of a four-track
EP from KIDS. The EP is embedded in this post. The core of KIDS is Beau Blaise
and Alex Harvey, who identify themselves as live-long friends. Older pictures
of the band show a total of six members - Shaq Noir (guitar), Jessica Walker
(bass), Rory Bett (keys), and Anoushka (drums). It appears that Bett is the member
not included in the more recent band pictures.
It
is not possible to pigeon-hole the sound of KIDS. For example, the song “Night
Bus” is melodically and vocally calming. A common thread through the songs is
the subject of early breakups and growing up. KIDS are signed with Scruff of
the Neck Records and are represented by Longevity PR. They are scheduled to
headline a show at Camden Assembly on March 16th (for ticket information,
