We're Gonna Make It/Help the Man
[ Vinyl / 7" Single ]

With a name as bold and optimistic as "New World We're Gonna Make It/Help the Man," one might expect this album to be a groundbreaking manifesto for change. Alas, what we are left with is a confusing mishmash of new age jingles and half-hearted attempts at social commentary. The album kicks off with "New World We're Gonna Make It," a cheery tune that promises a brighter future, complete with soaring strings and catchy hooks. While the optimism is palpable, one can't help but feel that the message falls a bit flat. It's like a warm hug from a well-meaning stranger - nice, but ultimately lacking in substance. On the flip side, "Help the Man" takes a more serious tone, addressing the struggles of the working class with gritty vocals and bluesy guitar riffs. The lyrics offer a glimpse into the harsh realities faced by many, but unfortunately, the overall execution feels forced and contrived. Overall, "New World We're Gonna Make It/Help the Man" is a mixed bag. While it may have its moments of charm and sincerity, it ultimately fails to deliver the impact it promises. Perhaps with a bit more focus and authenticity, this album could have truly been a game changer. But for now, it's just another forgettable addition to the ever-expanding sea of mediocrity.
