Lorelle Meets the Obsolete Share Ave en Reversa Video

We’ve got to keep our International readers happy, and with that, we turn towards Mexico’s Lorelle Meets the Obsolete. Earlier this summer, the group released Datura, but today I’m stoked to share a new video from standout “Ave en Reversa.” I was hooked from the opening, dropping in this angular line that kicks in enough pop to it that you can’t help but bob your head as the hi-hat shimmies in the background. Singer Lorena moves inside those notes, playfully maneuvering with this relaxed cool that carefully drifts atop the tune. As things progress, those angular notes get a bit sharper as the band start to flex their post-punk tendencies and creativity; see the pulsating midtrack breakdown for a prime example. But, just as easily as they slide into that, they creep right back into the melodic vibe, closing out the song in style. Datura is available now via Sonic Cathedral.
