Corey Crumpacker – more than just another artist with a ridiculously alliterative/overly-complicated/oddly spelled name (CHVRCHES and Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, we’re staring right at you).
“What Of Me” is a quintessential pop-rock offering – minus the excess cheese that can sometimes be a byproduct of many polished US singles.
As vocal introductions go, we weren’t entirely convinced by this pop offering, however, the instrumentals are where this track affirms its intent. Merging flecks of Mumford & Sons with the pacing urgency of Ryan Tedder and the One Republic boys, the chorus is where “What Of Me” really comes to life. Focusing in on the ever-expanding soundtrack market (a song that would nestle comfortably alongside any mainstream film or television drama),”What Of Me” surges determinedly towards a pop fruition.
