Rad New Track from Deliluh

I can’t turn this new Deliluh track off right now! It’s a slight bit heavier than my tastes of late, and perhaps not even that heavy, but more ominous. Strangely, it recalls a lot of the stuff I was into as an angsty teen, pulling from names like Shellac or Sonic Youth. Vocals in the track are murky, and they’re spoken as if they’ve been presented at some sort of poetry reading. The musical element is creeping behind those lyrics, but there’s plenty of space left for the band to work their discord into your ear holes. This tune appears on the bands forthcoming release, Oath of Intent, out May 3rd via Tin Angel Records.

Check Out Deliluh’s New Tune

I awoke this morning to find this track from Deliluh hanging out in my inbox, and I gave it a couple of quick spins. At first, I felt I heard some Dismemberment Plan nods (and I do), but then the guitars got a little more dangerous, a little more jagged and jittery. That’s when I got hooked, fueled by the tension of the song’s natural bass pulse in contrast to the spoken-word vocals and furious chords jumping at you from the distance. Now on multiple listens, it sounds like the more dangerous brother of Ought, post-punk and creative, but more likely to get you arrested. They’ll release Oath of Intent on May 3rd via Tin Angel and Telephone Explosion (US).
