Arliston have released their latest sad song, ‘Thawed’. Forming on the edges of indie rock, it beautifully branches into spheres of dazed folk and contemplative soul. Each sonic element has an immersive quality, be it the resonant riffs, effervescing bass line, or the deep vocal bloom. Their exploration of melancholy stretches the acoustic rock atmosphere in ways that are reminiscent of artists like Arctic Monkeys, The Strokes, and Franz Ferdinand. Listen Now!
The soundscape is designed to constantly dilate and evolve. However, life is contained in the haunting veil of the vocals. Its grief and darkness is all consuming, and if you listen carefully you will see it manifest progressively in the instrumental bloom. The artists also bring concept to the canvas, causing the flow to gradually loosen and become more fluid in its presentation of the theme. And this remarkably elevates the way the listener experiences the melancholy of the lyrical subject. Excellently worked and delivered.
Arliston debuted in 2018 and has since crafted a discography that speaks to their skill at sentiment. With over 20 singles, the artists have delved into so many variants of emotional depressions.
The track is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
