Ivy League’s sound is a sensation, an alternative anthem that is retro and contemporary all at the same time. The New York City band takes edgy to the next level. With inventive texture play, immersive instrumentals, and vocals from a void, they carve out their craft. Their latest release is ‘American Love’, a track that dives into a garage rock, grunge texture, scrubbing and scrunching the soundscape into a raw, immense, powerful mass. It is bottomless, so deep that it is undying. Slashing bass lines glow through it like current, so electric and numbing. All of this is raised to a roar. So many particles flying around, fuzz, white noise, light units, a dispersed lion’s roar, and a splitting lightning.
The machinations of the song are vast and varied. And they do so strongly, staunchly. It has grooves that are angsty in a way that is reminiscent of the 90s of bands like Nirvana. There are some 80s beat motifs and loops in there somewhere. All of them flare up like a mushrooming bomb, filling up the mind with its energy, substance, and electricity. If you’re looking for some musical uppers, this is the song for you. Listen Now!
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
