Tyminski’s voice drew me in initially, which really quite surprised me as I’m not the biggest supporter of country/bluegrass music. Al Fakir’s vocals lend a presence that doesn’t over take the original song. Pounding piano chords and a thumping beat give those at a club the perfect opportunity to dance all night to. Avicii blends some of the country-ness and commercial sound together, leading to the tracks ability to be radio friendly. And trust me, you’ve probably heard everyone and their mom singing this one. The first track from the album to be released, Blacc delivers lyrics that everyone can sing to. Read on for a short song by song review of Avicii’s “TRUE”.

But the moment when someone does something new and not the norm, a lot of people drank that hater-ade again and were calling Avicii’s new stuff crap and whatnot. I think it’s funny how people were getting all up in arms about how electro house is starting to have the same generic minimal drops and hardstyle kick in them (ex. Though I understand the UMF fans displeasure for “not getting what they thought they were gonna get” during his set, a change was needed and he stepped up to the plate. When I first heard his set, I honestly was thankful that someone finally had the balls to create something new and refreshing in the scene. He used one of the world’s biggest stages to premier something unique instead of playing heavy hitter after heavy hitter. Tim Bergling shocked the crowd (and the world) by playing what was deemed “country EDM” at first.
