Salt Lake Metropolis-based quartet Von Masse craft an immersive mix of dreamy pop, psych-rock, and shoegaze all through their debut full-length album, COIL, out on March twenty eighth. Described as “a deep dive into the cycles of affection and loss,” the discharge already stands as certainly one of my favorites this yr — constantly impressing with melodic earworms that span cohesively from lush synth-laden soundscapes and impassioned rock hooks.
Amongst the various highlights inside, “Tears for Who” intrigues with its moody guitar jangling and eerie vocal developments. “So, inform me darling,” they let loose throughout organ-touched brightness throughout an pleasing escalation. Crunchy guitar distortion and nocturnal synths additional that gripping ambiance, then shifting seamlessly again into the steadier verses. “Tears for Who” allures in its tonal selection and magnetic vocal layers.
The album’s finale, “Psych(e)” invigorates with its dynamic vary as effectively, from brisk psych-rock to dreamy synth warmness. “I simply wanna love you,” smitten vocal sentiments eat amidst a swell of spacey synth results and twanging guitar undercurrents, constructing with palpably climactic attract into the mystique-filled guitar pushes round 01:35. The flashes of excitable vocals enamor alongside heady synths and hypnotic guitars.
