Electric Chemistry on Fire: “MASTERPLAN” by Afternoon In The Park
“MASTERPLAN” by Afternoon In The Park doesn’t just kick in, it erupts with the confident swagger of a band that knows exactly what they’re doing. Taken from their concept album Livin’ Around The Sun, the track charges forward with infectious guitar riffs, stomping drums, and a voice that sits somewhere between defiance and desire.
From the very first few seconds, the song feels alive, tight, punchy, and filled with a kind of magnetic urgency. You can almost picture the amps glowing red in the studio as the quartet powers through this anthem about trust, respect, and the delicate dance of human connection. Yamin Alma’s vocals carry just the right amount of grit, while the production by Gordon Raphael (yes, the Strokes producer) wraps it all in a glossy indie-rock sheen.
There’s a strong sense of chemistry among the band members, Ari’s saturated guitar lines duel with Thomas’s steady, grooving bass, while Julien’s percussion and programming pack each chorus with just enough lift to make you want to jump. It’s rock that wants to move your body as much as it sparks your brain.
“MASTERPLAN” is the kind of track that belongs on your road trip playlist, bold, loud, and humming with cool confidence.
