Jamming This Spun Out Single

When Chicago band Spun Out first got going, they were lumped in with a lot of psych pop acts, and that’s all well and good, but their latest single is indicative of the band’s drive towards pop. At times, the brooding bounce offers up a bit of post-punk, but once the vocals come in the song takes on this yearning struggle, seeking solace on the other side of the horizon. That rhythm section alone, pounding away, makes this song’s vibrancy sing allowed furiously, with textured synths matching up with the vocals to brandish a forward-thinking brand of pop. We’ll see if we’re right when the band drops Dream Noise via Shuga Records on October 25th.
