grogshop.gs - "Brooklyn's The Honorary Title began as a moniker for Jarrod Gorbel's solo folk musings but in the last few years it has evolved into a full-fledged quartet about to release its second album and major label debut, Scream and Light Up the Sky— a beautifully ragged collection of subtle indie pop with hints of Americana, Britpop, and punk. With a solid line-up and years of playing together under their belts, it's no surprise that Scream and Light Up the Sky has a bigger sound than its predecessor. “Anything Else But The Truth focused more on me as a singer-songwriter,” Gorbel says. “You can hear it in the sparse production and acoustic guitar.” The addition of Boyd and Wiley has made a significant impact this time around. “Adam's drumming style introduced a more powerful rock sound, and Jon's electric guitar added another level of atmosphere and texture.” This is heavily displayed in the album's first single, “Stuck at Sea.” “They are also both singers in their own right,” he continues, “and their higher ranges allowed for an array of harmonies that really tied in that indie-pop influence and brought the songs to life.”
