Skyward Story is made up of Aaron O’Connor on lead vocals, Scott Montgomery on guitar, as well as Brandon Millman on drums. They hail from Baltimore, Maryland.
Their 10-track CD opens with “Hey,” which has an All-American Rejects (“Dirty Little Secret”) and Blink-182 retro vibe to it, and it immediately breaks into the mid-tempo “Smile,” as well as “Trading Secrets.”
Other noteworthy tunes are the nonchalant and laid-back “New Beginnings,” as well as “Requiem,” which is the journalist’s personal favorite tune on the collection.
After the catchy “Stellar Collision,” their album closes with the upbeat “Riptide” and the melodically stunning “Autumn.”
Reborn is available on iTunes and on Spotify.
The Verdict
Overall, Skyward Story has released a fun and solid new album, Reborn. There are no filler tracks on this studio offering, and it was certainly worth the wait. Reborn garners an A rating.
