What will they think of me if I leave it all behind?
If you Google “Sleeping with Sirens”, the excellent decade-old band behind this week’s Track of the…Week, you’ll see the first question in the “People Also Ask” section: Is the lead singer a girl? In today’s muddled sonic landscape, you need a voice like Kellin Quinn to front a band that quite simply, rocks. “Leave It All Behind” grabs you and pulls you into a Linkin Park mosh pit, yet still manages to sound new and refreshing.
I'll be your hope when you are hopeless / Together, we are not alone
If crunching guitars over a hip hop beat are your thing (complete with a very cool Tom Morello guitar-as-turntable effect at the end of each verse), this is a must-hear. If you love to hear new voices that pierce like, well, a siren, this is your jam. If you are looking to quit your job, this is your motivation. Leave it all behind.

About the Curator - Ben Young:
Ben Young lives a life of polarity. He has split his life between the coasts: half his life on the West (California) and half on the East (Georgia and Virginia). He has pursued careers in the art world (film school graduate) and the corporate world (executive with Fortune 500 companies). And he is Biracial, the personification of being two things at once.
Ben’s musical influences were formed by music loving parents, raised in a world of John Coltrane and John Lennon, James Taylor and James Ingram, Huey Lewis and the News and Prince and the Revolution. Saxophones, electric guitars, synthesizers, and breakbeats filled the air Ben breathed from birth. And being born one year after the birth of Hip Hop, Ben has been joined at the hip with the genre his entire life.
Check out Ben’s blog where you can get more recommendations on great music, presented from a Biracial point of view: www.khameleonkurator.com.
