Not since Paolo Nutini has there been such a good free track available on the UK iTunes Store. Before The Worst is an anthemic pop tune (if that's possible) that sidesteps the Coldplay niche nicely while smiling more than Keane and Turin Brakes. Is it because it's a truly pop track and not pretending to be alternative/adult rock? Does the quasi-Timberlake high speed vocal add something that your parents wouldn't get? What catches the ear is the traditional stylings that belong in an epic, all nicely produced into a sugary yet punchy hit that wont win awards but certainly wont offend within a sea of mediocrity.
