Fresh off the release of their debut album ‘Feel Better’, Canadian alternative/R&B outfit Honors provide arguably one of their best tracks yet in the haunting ‘August’ that serves as a master stroke in the injection of airiness and hip hop influence.
Swirling in with the enchanting strings luring you in, ‘August’ without hesitation moves swiftly into a vigorous hip hop groove in the percussion that compliments the powerful vocal offerings on display. This forcing nature reaches it climatic point during the chorus where the lyrics ‘Do you think about it sometimes’ exemplify the emotion that lies in the core of the track, that leads into a breakdown where the strings and strong beats take their true form in a riveting passage that sends off an impressive display of concise instrumentation.
