‘The Broken Satellite’ by Nights Like Thieves Is Some Strong SoCal Emo

‘The Broken Satellite’ by Nights Like Thieves is some sad, spacey alternative rock with a clear, dreamy vibe. These guys say they “started out in October of 2016 in San Diego, California. We self record, mix and mastered our own recordings and film and edit our own music videos.” They describe their sound as moving between “an upbeat, intricate and melodic vibe to a slower, more rhythmic and emotionally charged pace.” These guys are definitely pretty emo. They bring a dark, emotionally potent thematic atmosphere to a clean, almost poppy take on production and songwriting. The band obviously takes a variety of influences from their genre of the choice, but it seems like some clear lines can be drawn to Boys Night Out – which may be the most underrated emo pop band of all time – and Armor For Sleep’s suburban, otherworldly take. These guys are definitely worth a listen. Check out ‘The Broken Satellite’ below!
