Sound check: A snap review of new music

Pale Waves

Pale Waves' new single
Worth your time: NO

Four-piece pop-rock band Pale Waves' second single from the forthcoming album Who am I? is meant to be raw, given that it banks on lead singer Heather Baron Gracie's love life, and vulnerability. But, She's my religion has turned out to be so pale that it doesn't egg one on to hit replay. Gracie springs a surprise ever so often with her tonality, but, put together, the song isn't particularly luring.
