Picture this: It’s Tuesday evening. You’re walking inside the mall with your arms full of paper bags and groceries, and then there’s a faint sound you hear from a random shop. Then suddenly, you’re 14 again with your headphones on, glued to your own world. You don’t know the song, but the overall sound feels familiar. That’s how A Dangerous Affair pulls you into a nostalgic flair with their single The Secrets We Keep.
The band is based in Texas, earning praises from the local pop-punk scene with their strong presence in Fort Worth. If you’ve ever got hooked with All Time Low, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, or Boys Like Girls, A Dangerous Affair’s The Secrets We Keep might be a good addition to your playlist.
This track has it all to please a crowd, from driving guitars and propulsive beats, anthemic chorus that calls for a sing-along, to a composition that sounds new yet familiar to ears — it brings back that angst and energy you had from highschool. Along with its arrangement is the theme of the lyrics that resonates so well without the need to dissect and overanalyze. There is no wrong way to listen to this track, it slaps no matter how or where you play it, whether it is played full-blast on old wired headphones or with a set of massive speakers for an open ground music fest.
A Dangerous Affair’s color and sound really shines with this project. The Secrets We Keep might be exactly what you’re looking for in a modern pop-punk scene, it’s fresh and timeless.
