MothBreath is a wave of fresh air. Their recent single Brand New evolves like an existential breakthrough. The vibe is always dreamy, but it wades between washes of melodically dark and light. In that way they bridge the gap between nineties alternative and Trip Hop. We hear sentiments of Live and Alanis Morissette as well as shades of Sneaker Pimps and Portishead.
The English duo has a dynamic sound. A jangly dreamy guitar ponders the melodic spectrum as cosmic synth dance around an airy atmosphere. The singers inspired contribution encapsulates the aura of the lyrics. “You make me feel old and brand new.” Touche.
Brand New is featured on our All New Indie Pop Playlist.
