In the words of Shower Beers: "One More Shot" is the perfect lead single for our new EP. Some of the songs might have a bigger chorus, a vibey-er bridge, or more technical musicianship, but "One More Shot" does the best job of wrapping everything that makes Shower Beers "Shower Beers" up in a tight 3 minutes. It perfectly encapsulates what this project is - fat riffs, a couple of jokes, and hook after hook after hook."
LONG STORY SHORT: Shower Beers' latest single, "One More Shot" featuring SoSo, is a pop-punk gem that kicks off with a powerful instrumental lead-up featuring tight drums and gripping guitar riffs. The song's strength lies in its fast, melodic vocal lines, which seamlessly complement the energetic guitar work, evoking reminiscent vibes of the iconic Blink-182. "One More Shot" weaves a cute and fun love story throughout, with lyrics like "I found the one in a dirty basement bathroom/You said we should/Get a matching pair of tattoos.../Cause you're the one that's perfect for me" painting a vivid picture of this romance. The track maintains its momentum with a commanding bridge at the 1:16 mark, crafting a composition that's both infectious and rhythmic. Direct and to the point, "One More Shot" serves as a vibrant testament to the timeless appeal of pop punk.
