“LIFE IS FUNNY” BY THE DREADED LARAMIE IS A GUITAR-DRIVEN EARWORM

The Dreaded Laramie is best described as pop-punk, however, they cultivate their sound by bringing in elements of other genres, namely indie sleaze alt-rock. Fans of artists like Mars Argo would love The Dreaded Laramie, and especially their new song, “Life Is Funny.”

Self-described as “Nashville femmecore,” The Dreaded Laramie writes undeniably shreddy hooks paired with deceptively airy, princessy lead vocals. However, the Mars Argo comparisons begin with The Dreaded Laramie’s knack for contrasting elements. These fairytale-esque choices are merely an illusion; the single is very dark when you check out the lyrics.

Frontwoman MC Cunningham used her own experience with rejection to create a zany, yet realistic single that’s sure to catch the ears of many. The group is packed with potential, especially as guitar-driven music is seemingly making a resurgence in the mainstream.

Topical, catchy, and fun, “Life Is Funny” by The Dreaded Laramie is a hit.
