Lomelda achieve introspective simplicity on “Interstate Vision”

DIY indie rock has experienced somewhat of a revival this year. Ditsy, personal, bedroom tracks are dominating the landscape and a band giving their two cents is Texas-based Lomelda, recent signings to Double Double Whammy Records.

The song is decadently incongruous; the bright, spiralling guitars are tinged with gloominess, and frontwoman Hannah Read’s vocal is piercing throughout. Read and her troupe have managed to emerge with a sound that is emotional, personable and charmingly raw whilst remaining mature, focused and rooted in simple indie rock. You can’t ask for much more than that.
