Deuce Share Seven Hour Flower

Deuce caught our attention last year when they burst onto the scene with their debut LP, not to mention that 1/2 of the principal songwriter is Curtis from the Ocean Party/Pop Filter. Today, the Melbourne group return with this sensational new single. The songwriting on this is sharp, immediately building the melody for Kayleigh’s voice to shine; it cruises through the song like some pop music whirling dervish, spinning this meditative trance over the listener. But, there’s some nice guitar licks in there too, bulking up the texture and carrying the song in its own fashion. Fingers crossed we get more from the act real soon.

If you’re into the Aussie scene and you follow bands like Ciggie Witch or Pregnancy, well, this new tune from Skydeck sounds nothing like that. But, it does features members of the band, though they’re offering up more of a darkened dance pop for your ears. The tune has this heavy punch on the synth lines, giving you this head-bobbing beat as the vocal delivery operates in between the notes. There’s this slight little set-up for the chorus that offers glimmers of jangling guitar pop, albeit super brief. It all sets things up for this infectious dancefloor-ready hit, waiting for you to punch-dance your way onto the floor. The group drop their new Coupon LP on August 27th via Dinosaur City/Osborne Again/KingfisherBluez.
