National Honor Society Share As She Slips Away
I will be the first to admit that I love my indiepop really crisp and angular, for the most part. But, the National Honor Society are brandishing a brand of the genre that feels powerful and refreshing; they’re banging out these huge sonic riffs, billowing with noise and discord, tethered to this beautiful central melody. Every time your speakers shake, you’re drawn to this tractor beam of beauty that reverberates just beneath the surface. The chorus, a calm in the storm, punctuates the melodic nature. It sounds huge, but doesn’t lose that shared moment between friends, which draws so many to indiepop sounds. Plus, it comes with a message that highlights the disillusioned American dream as “democracy crumbles around us.” The band will release To All the Distance Between Us on April 21st via Shelflife and Discos de Kirlian.
