New York City’s Silverbird commune “With The Spirits” on this spellbinding new single from their forthcoming LP.
Over a bed of acoustic guitar strums and a straightforward electronic drum beat, frontman Tim Barr’s voice absolutely shines here, rasping and straining its way through a thick wall of reverb like a ghost fighting its way back into the realm of the living. The séance vibe intensifies at the song’s midpoint with the addition of a strange, subtle organ line, haunting background vocals, and a roaring guitar solo.
Surface Life is set for release on 27 May.
