Let’s check them out:
Normal Life
Vocally residing between Neil Tennant and Trevor Deeble (The Office For Personal Development), Declan. takes their psychedelia to the edge pop music nirvana.
As the UK falls apart, Red Telephone paints its frayed image with its Blade Runner decaying synths but never without hope through its joyous melody.
You’re Not Wrong
The angelic guitars hazy guitars of Real Estate and Drab majesty are met by Declan paying homage to Mark Greaney (JJ72) on this anxious but defiant record.
Happy Man
If Stranger Things tasked the DMA’s and Tame Impala to make its new soundtrack this would surely be the result. Angelic guitars and ethereal vocals float on high whilst the synths add a melodic urgency to proceedings.
They feature on This Feeling’s Big In 2023 shows. Click the image below for tickets:
