"Rooney" showcases a vibrant blend of rock and pop, characterized by jangly guitars and catchy melodies. The production is polished yet retains an organic feel, allowing the instrumentation—rich with layered guitars, punchy drums, and bright keyboards—to shine. Tracks like "I'm Shakin'" and "Daisy Duke" exude a youthful energy with upbeat tempos, while "Sorry Sorry" introduces a more reflective tone with its melodic hooks. The album's textures range from the driving rhythms of "Losing All Control" to the more laid-back vibe of "Simply Because," creating a dynamic listening experience. Overall, the album's distinctive charm lies in its infectious choruses and the seamless interplay between rock grit and pop sensibility.
