Kids in the Making soon to be "the talk of the town"

From its overly colorful cover to its cartoon laced CD, it becomes immediately evident that Kids in the Making is a high energy band. This assumption is proven true after listening to its five track album, The talk of the town. With a sound somewhere between Paramore and a heavier All Time Low, Kids in the Making has elements very similar to other bands in the pop/punk/rock genre.

Lead vocalist Danielle Buehrle draws obvious comparisons to Hayley Williams of Paramore, not only because she is a female singer in a rock band, but because she has a similar singing style. Zach Schwochow lays the framework for most of their songs with heavy, yet rhythmic, percussion. Nate Kohlenberg and Ryan Riffle complement the heavy drumming with even heavier guitar riffs and Greg Depp keeps it all together with awesome bass lines.

The fourth song on the album, “Inside every story,” begins with a metal-esque guitar riff that turns into a methodical chorus and ends with a breakdown featuring backup vocals from the whole band, before fading out into the same riff from the beginning.

Although many will see them as “just another band” because its sound is very similar to other bands out there, Kids in the Making have some very special aspects. It masterfully blends high-octane rhythms with catchy choruses that give it a unique sound rivaling other bands in its genre.
