Irish four-piece Some Remain have a new single ‘Dead Sound’, and their fifth to date. It’s the latest of 3 singles to be recorded with Felipé Loughran-Ponce in Fused Ion Studios, Galway, moving away from their self-recorded early singles. ‘Dead Sound’ captures a wild abandon, rough and raucous yet somehow tight. The track canters along at pace, all punky vibes and static fuelled guitars.
This is a track that makes you feel the band is having the time of their lives. Some Remain are building a reputation based on the quality high energy of their live shows. Lyrically ‘Dead Sound’ follows the antics of a dead sound lad on a night out. The garage-punk energy here is totally infectious.
There is also a tongue in cheek humour here. Mid-track the whole sound gets completely out of control until the electric riffs of the guitar eventually everything back on track. The beat and pace is manic to the end – and that final note! Just class timing.
