Indoor Friends – Where I’m Going
Indoor Friends’ ‘Where I’m Going’ is a riff-loaded, feel-good, dynamic and youthful rock song. It has such a “go with it” momentum. Like a bursting river that takes you away with it, you feel the pull, the force, and the feeling. The vocals are high energy as it builds onto the burgeoning foundation of riffs and beats. The song is about going with the flow, about moving even though you might not know exactly where you’re going. The tides of the song is such a complex mixture of fear, self-doubt, self realization, and defining the contours of who you want to be, where you want to end up. It’s empowering and so boundlessly refreshing. Listen Now!
Andrew Schneider – Astonish Me
Andrew Schneider is a singer-songwriter and a rock artist. He has a way of looping rock elements and frames with dramatic lifts and vocal flair. His latest release is ‘Astonish Me’, a track that forms like a play. The vocals are performed lines that are fed into a piercing electric guitar emotion. Mixed in with dazing indie rock riffs, and expanding horizons of rock instrumentals, the artist puts on a show. One that has a landscapic feel, a sound that takes you back to the theatrical rock vision of Queen’ Bohemian Rhapsody, The Beatles’ ‘Because’. To be able to use familiar motifs and bring them together with a vision that transforms the listening experience. It’s like going to a Rock Cabaret.
I Forget Myself – The Climb
Ending this week’s ’Riffs & Roads’ list is an alt rock song from I Forget Myself’s ninth studio album. ‘The Climb’ is a composition that dips into the retro psychedelic rock influence and lifts from its moments of alt rock brilliance. Their astro/ space aesthetic is well preserved in the vocal energy. Hypnotic curves that weave like spaceships across a rock wilderness. The ascent is in the atmosphere. The texture, variance, chromatism, all of them are a moody mystery. With cerebral sensibilities are not exaggerated or overdone. Using clean accents and sophisticated sonic gestures and techniques, they cultivate the soundscape with such a buoyant yet immersive listening experience. Listen Now!
