Wray Rhymes with Friday, Perfect

I really struggled to find stuff that grabbed my ear this week, until this track from Wray trickled into the old inbox. It’s the second time I’ve been struck by such a track this week. The group will easily get lumped into the gaze category, but I like that the recording shows some restraint, pulling more out of the song’s emotive quality than it’s punishing sonic wash. Tracks like this have me excited to hear what the group has as they prep the release of their new album, Hypatia, which is slated for an early 2015 release.
