About
ROAM is a British pop-punk band originating from Eastbourne, England, known for their energetic blend of pop-punk and anthem emo. Formed in 2012, the group includes Alex Costello (lead vocals), Alex Adam (vocals and guitar), Sam Veness (guitar), Matt Roskilly (bass), and Charlie Pearson (drums). Drawing inspiration from bands like New Found Glory, blink-182, and Sum 41, ROAM has crafted a sound that pays homage to the early-2000s pop-punk scene while infusing their music with modern energy and emotion.
How to Sound Like ROAM
ROAM’s sound is characterized by high-energy, kinetic guitar riffs and urgent vocals, creating a lively and engaging sonic experience. Their music often features driving, rhythmic guitar parts, achieved through clean yet punchy tones that can be emulated using solid-state amplifiers for clarity and distortion pedals for an extra edge. The drums are typically fast-paced and dynamic, providing a powerful backbone that propels their songs forward. To capture their vibrant style, musicians should focus on tight, precise playing and energetic arrangements, using chorus and delay effects to add depth and dimension to guitar parts without losing the raw intensity that defines the band’s sound.
