Spyres SXSW Fundraiser
Entry Requirements: over 18s only
Glasgow four-piece Spyres are today announcing their new EP Karaoke Sellout for release on 24th November. Following the previously released 'Sleep Forever' and 'Money', new cut 'The Thing' is yet another galloping indie-pop earworm that continues to mark Spyres out as a band with considerable song writing smarts. Upcoming EP Karaoke Sellout guarantees to be fulfil all of their early promise.
Fast becoming known for their soaring melodies and inventive outlook, on new single 'The Thing' Spyres bring forth a brisk sugar-rush attack that joins direct song writing with addictive ping-ponging, call-and-response vocals. It's a song that revels in ambiguity, the unknowable, and the things you can't quite find the right words for. The band explains:
"‘The Thing’ just speaks for itself. When those words were brought up in a writing session, we thought there were so many avenues to go down and so much it could be about hence the extensive lyrics in the chorus and bridge. We never actually come to a conclusion of who or what The Thing is as we wanted to give it a real edge and leave the listener wanting to know more."
