about

The startling Into the Aether is a tip of the hat to Dreampop/Shoegaze band DIIV, with an aggressive, gritty bass driving along the rhythm section. “We put a Leslie on the lead guitar to really give the song a trippy vibe,” recalls McMurtry. The lead vocals on Aether as well have an otherworldly quality, phased and chorused soothingly. Fynn’s melody-craft really shines on the chorus, which also features a standout guitar hook reminiscent of the Cure.

lyrics

Ever and anon she treads the silvery trail, luminescent.
Gently ebbs along the swirling tide, effervescent.
Trip a traipse to Alexandrine shores, pearlescent.
Wistful whispers tickle unspoilt ears, delitescent.

Dancing between two worlds, belonging to neither.
Left alone to rectify, she slips into the aether.
Into the aether, Into the aether.

Feeble effort strains to meet the mark , acquiescent.
Archetypes will course the tattered path, obsolescent.
