Dead is Dead

STUPID DRAMA
 
The song has a cool repetitive minimal funk thing going on reminiscent of Use No Hooks and Pylon, but the vocals are sharp, dry and fiery, sometimes eroding into an acerbic Sleaford Mods style bored and anguished drawl. It's a bratty, snotty, foot-stomping, sax-screeching romp through the types of absurd, mundane predicaments that sometimes grow so big they seem to generate their own gravitational fields.  I always feel like I'm gasping for air in this song, which fits well with the theme of being completely fed-up and trying to laugh about it.    - Anna

DONZII - Disco Rosie

Revealing their first song of 2023, Christchurch based indie rock duo The Response return with new single. Opting to release their album one track at a time rather than all at once, the new song “Over The Moon” is the 8th release in the series. The farcical lyrics about not being able to slow down when confronted with the passing of time, coupled with the angular note choices and ceaseless rhythm make it feel like a chase scene in a thriller movie. Skittering drums and pulsing bass are punctuated by guitar that puts the whole song on edge.

Over The Moon

Discovering and sharing unsigned & small label indie gems (mostly) plus occasional bona fide classics

Post-punk, new wave, punk, garage, alternative rock, dream pop, electronica, reggae, world, psychedilia, folk, surf, blues and classic soul: if it has an indie vibe or beautiful vocals I'm there for it.

Reached limit for following, can't follow back but message me with new indie tracks you think I should listen to.
