REAP WHAT YOU SOW BY CHARLIE SMITH

Picture
Charlie Smith is an alternative acoustic artist from Hampshire, UK, which—being the ignorant American that I am—I have no idea where it is. After looking it up, it looks like a delightful place.
Despite being from what appears to be a region full of quaint little villages, Charlie is full of an angst only Robbie Valentino from Gravity Falls could harbour (using the British spelling accordingly).

If I could guess the songwriting process of “Reap What You Sow,” Charlie's newest single, it would be watching The Batman (or at least the trailer) a billion times and then go straight into the studio, wishing to create a grunge/hard rock song but realizing he only had an acoustic guitar on hand.

I can picture Charlie emulating his best Rob Pattinson Batman impression—eyeliner smeared— staring out the window on a rainy day peering west in my general direction, scowling with approval of this accurate description.

​Despite the jokes, “Reap What You Sow” is simply and delightfully acoustic grunge. It sounds like if the band Chevelle were acoustic and emerged a decade before they were relevant. “The Red” by Chevelle mixed with “Something In The Way” by Nirvana. Check it below.
