Musical style
Their style has often been related to genres such as alternative rock, pop rock and post-hardcore by reviewers; AltSounds reviewed their début album Priorities to have elements of all three genres. The review continues to say that various songs have some sort of groove to them, in particular 'Hold On' stating that it had a '...Sexy Groove aided by the lead singer’s charisma and frank lyrics about a close encounter of the female kind...'. AlreadyHeard expressed that the album was mostly alternative rock, yet praised the album's range of different moods, going from energetic to 'cheeky' songs. A live review from Virtual Festivals reviewed the band's performance at the Leeds Festival in 2013 and proclaimed that the changes in the band's musical style compared to their earlier music from the likes of the Living The Dream and Thug Workout EPs were substantial. They claimed that due to this some members of their audience were unsatisfied and that the new material was dulled by a slower tempo and a 'love-letter' lyrical style.
RocksFreaks.Net expressed the Thug Workout EP to be a half mixture of nu metal and post-hardcore due to the mixture of half-rap verses and screams and related their sound to that of A Day to Remember. The reviews for the third EP Big Fat Smile primarily called it a general rock album with elements of rock pop. Rocksound called the album '...good mix of Brit-rock riffs, sarcastic lyrical content and jovial pop sensibilities.' with Alter the Press! also backing this statement up, placing them with the likes of many other '...British rock hopefuls for 2011'.
