Listen to Coast to Coast from Wish Queen

In the electronic pulse of this opening moment from the new Wish Queen, I found my own heartbeat, I found myself ready to be immersed, matching my emotions here. For the first minute or so, you get that beat and an ethereal vocal sort of fluttering about, letting you drift with it. Then, subtly, a heavy guitar creates this wash of atmosphere, bringing with it a bit of heaviness that pulls you within, briefly allowing you some respite. And, because the song may seem quiet, it also sneaks bending movement throughout, as you’ll see in the slight uptick at the 3 minute mark, letting layered vocals build texture just as distant guitars do the same. It’s a truly moving piece, and one that should set the scene for your listen to the new LP, Saturnalia.
