Tobin Rock – All U Need (2021)
Tobin Rock is celebrating artists, their voices and the music they make with the driving sounds of ‘All U Need’. Using a hard and driving sound, he has crafted an anthem for artists to stay true to themselves and embrace their creativity and voice. With an inspiring message, he lets listeners know that while things are still closed, artists are passionately pushing forward.
The single comes off the back of his fierce single ‘Cruel’ and continues his reflection on the world we live in. While touching on the vulnerability that artists have felt in the last year, he also provides the strength needed to move forward. Drawing on the guitar-driven style of Muse, U2 and Foo Fighters, he celebrates that which has been overlooked.
Tobin Rock starts to fill you with strength from the first moments of ‘All U Need’. His voice huskily whispers through a sombre soundscape as he encourages you to believe in yourself and shrug off the negatives from other people. There is a delightful growl to his voice as he calls for you to embrace your creativity and voice. While the lyrics are targeted to artists, anyone who has been feeling down will find a boost of empowerment and strength in the track. There is a wonderful feeling of connection in his performance while he lifts your spirits and helps you feel at peace with yourself.
The driving melody resting below his lyrics helps him pulse the message of the track into your brain. While the opening is soft and alluring, the pace picks up with the guitars making their presence known. The chorus has a heavy feeling as the lyrics and their message is pumped into your veins. The thrumming of the melody has your head moving while pumping you up and filling you with a different kind of strength to the lyrics. The guitar solo later in the track is wonderful and just sends you soaring to new heights.
Tobin Rock fills you with strength and power even if you aren’t an artist in the driving tones of ‘All U Need’. His growling and husky vocals encourage you to embrace your voice and not let what others say bring you down. This message is thrummed into your soul by the music which lifts you up while pumping strength into your veins.
