After being downright good in their debut effort, Jack The Lad Swing, more known mononymously as JLS, are back with a new single entitled The Club Is Alive. The single aims to continue the momentum built by the boyband thanks to their previous singles such as One Shot and Beat Again.

Is The Club Is Alive good though? To be honest, the single is pure shit. I apologize for the usage of profanity but the intro of the track is just pure crap. The auto-tuning makes the whole track unbearable. The track can be a classic example for pure hearing torture, I must say. The band tries everything it could possibly can to make the track pleasing but it all just falls apart. Production-wise, the track is unimpressive.

Still, seeing the band push the envelope a bit is great. Instead of going the safe route, the band tries to be ‘creative.’ Sad to say, their efforts massively failed. What eventually happens is a track loaded with crap. And is the club still alive after this miserable single? I guess not.

To be released in JLS’ upcoming sophomore effort
