| Elastic Sleep - Leave You |
Release Date: 31st March 2014
I'm not sure what you call people
from Cork. Corkians? Corkish? Corkers? Answers on a postcard please. Whatever
you call them, Elastic Sleep are a corking indie-pop combo from the Irish city
and their new single, 'Leave You', is a master class in the genre. Lazy drum
rhythms, squally guitars and luscious vocals drift from my speakers and mingle
with the morning sunshine to put a blissed out tint on the world. Imagine a
middle point in a Venn diagram that includes the likes of Dubstar, St Etienne,
Tanya Donnelly and anyone you care to mention from the lighter end of the
shoegaze spectrum and you're pretty much there. Elastic Sleep are the latest in
an encouraging number of Irish bands making a resurgence after a few years of
being under the radar and as the climatic guitar chimes ring out on this track
you can't help but feel that it's high time we had some new heroes to champion
from the emerald isle. Could it be Elastic Sleep? Quite possibly.
