Vesture is back with a bang releasing their latest single “On and On”, which can be described as their most accessible and anthemic track to date. This up-tempo unrelenting banger showcases a more commercial side to the bands writing, that is not to say however that it is without its merit. “On and On” is a catchy track yet it still masks the intricacy of time signatures changes and dynamic shifts that fans have come to associate with the Brighton based four piece.

On And On

On 29th June rising alternative rock outfit Vesture release their new single ‘Dust & Parts’; an intimate and emotive song that shows a band developing a deep sense of their own individuality. 

Vesture have been busy gaining a reputation on the UK gigging circuit since 2016, leading them to support bands such as Toska, itoldyouiwouldeatyou and Bellevue Days, whilst self-releasing their debut EP ‘Trinkets & Gold’ early in 2017. Their new material sees them knuckling down in the studio with renowned producer/engineer Mark Roberts (Black Peaks, Delta Sleep, The Physics House Band), allowing their raw alternative charm to further flourish.

‘Dust & Parts’ takes us into the all too familiar terrain of an irreconcilable relationship, with front man & rhythm guitarist Gareth Carter’s emotionally charged lyrics guiding us through the process of grieving. “It’s a song that deals with the reluctance to let go and the chase to return a lost spark, amidst the knowledge that the end is soon to come” explains Carter, “It’s about acceptance found through a lack of time and the warm embrace of significance discovered in apparent insignificance.” Carter is joined by fellow guitarist Tommy Young, bassist Sam Turner and drummer Dave Bull, who harness a diverse range of influences from Biffy Clyro to Radiohead to create a musicality that is more than just the sum of its parts.

Accompanying the single is the surreal animated video, which utilizes the single artwork to create a swirling, kaleidoscopic journey, sucking you into a spinning colourless vortex. Front man and guitarist Gareth Carter elaborates: “The video is ace because it flows in much the same way my brain did whilst writing this song during a grieving process. There are all these pieces that are clear, you know they belong somewhere, but their place is not obvious. They twist and turn and fade and drift while you try and make sense of it all until eventually it culminates into the full picture, and acceptance is found.” 

Underneath the affecting vocals of ‘Dust & Parts’ lies a dynamically rich and intricate instrumentation, foreshadowing the type of mature songwriting that can be heard on number of singles set to be released in the near future.

Dissassociation

With ‘Five Seven Six’, Vesture present their most ambitious single to date. The song marvellously showcases the bands talent and maturity in composition, flowing seamlessly through a variety of time signatures and dynamics, offering an intimate delicacy whilst clearly asserting itself as a powerful anthem.
Whereas the previous singles have had a darker feel to them, there is almost a hopeful and reflective sound to this latest track, both musically, and in lyrical content.
Although Lyrically the song speaks of being unable to let go of love in the opening verses; much like its predecessors, it slowly and honestly comes round to a level of melancholy acceptance which has been captured authentically to create an enticing and engaging listen
