The Submissives Share Friend Named Betty

Leave a comment

We’ve been on board with all the hits coming out of Montreal from the Submissives, and for those that love a classic pop sound, you’re going to really dig on this new single. In a sense, it reminds me a bit of the approach Shannon and the Clams have to crafting their ditties, only this go is stripped of the garage tendencies and paved by lighter jangling guitar notes. Those little stabbing lines create a bit of playfulness, begging for the rest of the tune to ease into the pop melodics with a barrage of great harmonies. Live at Value Sound Studios better be on your radar; it drops next Friday!

The Submissives Share Maybe Someday Single

When you listen to the Submissives, they force you to readjust your ears. Not because you either party is doing something wrong, but they simply encourage you to reposition your thoughts on what modern indie rock has become. In a get-hits-quick climate, certain styles become a dime-a-dozen, but I’m pretty sure there aren’t too many folks around operating like this Quebec outfit. They bend and mold discordant notes into the faintest hint of melodic movement; the strings almost seem like they’re just being stretched or fine-tuned, not quite ready for the show. Still, they move forward, creeping along in a sense that feels both theatrical and refreshing. Live at Value Sound Studios is out on October 11th.
