Vitality Theory

Assigning labels to bands often allows fans of music and critics alike to give an instant stylistic description as well as a frame of reference for a certain sound. Often these labels contain the all too familiar "post" followed by a genre, such as post-punk or post-hardcore. Let's not forget the all too familiar "o" tags, like screamo and emo. While it is sometimes claimed that a band's style defies typecasting, usually those claims end up proving more rhetoric than gospel. Rosaline, a 6 piece outfit from Chicago, is a glowing example of the rare exception to the norm. Their ambitious song writing and organic melding of styles effortlessly thrust their sound far beyond the limitations of genres. With 100% of their time and energy now dedicated towards creating and performing music, the band has already written a brand new album. The new full length delivers a more mature and focused style of songwriting. There is no doubt this band is set to explode into the next chapter of their already fulfilling musical journey.
