With Valentine's Day looming ever-closer, Birmingham three-piece The Castillians have shared a devastatingly romantic new single.
"Come What May" is entirely timeless. Melodies steeped in nostalgia are dragged screeching into the 21st century through echoing distortion, whilst Matthew Smyth's vocals resound with a raw sincerity that will twist around your gut as it makes your hair stand on end.
It's a desperate kind of devotion The Castillians present here. Coupling intense yearning with rambunctious dexterity, the trio are capable of melting even the coldest of hearts.
The Castillians' new album, You & Me, is released via PNKSLM on 26 February.
