There’s no denying that Hedley’s new album, Famous Last Words, due October 30 on Universal Music, shows an edge, a purpose, a defined personality that only comes from experience and development. So while they continue their legendary goofball rock ‘n roll antics, their music is evolving and maturing to a whole new level.
Famous Last Words is filled with sweet turns and surprises. There’s the take-no-shit, barreling-rock single “She’s So Sorry,” the R&B/soul ballad “For The Nights I Can’t Remember,” the reggae nod “Never Too Late” and punk-spat twits’ tale “Narcissist” — all linked by the rock band’s tight playing and frontman Jacob Hoggard’s unique vocals.
