Single of the week - Some Remain Feel Low
Some Remain are an alternative indie punk band from Sligo. Formed from busking on the streets of their hometown and having played all over Ireland, they deliver catchy hooks and chaotic noise in their high energy live sets. This is brought about by feeling an absence of something like that around them, and wanting to create something with some edge and fun.
​
Feel Low is their most ambitious track to date with a mix of dynamic energy, sonic textures and some of their typically chaotic instrumentation. It brings the band’s signature energy juxtaposed with softer elements and melody compared to previous releases as well as much more ambitious production. This version features the long, gentle, psychedelic coda with a brilliant bass work out - quite different from their usual sound.
To keep up to date with what's happening in Irish punk, post punk, psych, motorik and electronica follow our Blowtorch Records' 'Gas It Up' Spotify playlist.
