Kanadia – Ocean Blue
Kanadia - Ocean Blue |
Release Date: Out Now
There’s a whip of a storm brewing
around this Oxford four piece that has peaked my interest. Kanadia’s new
single, ‘Ocean Blue’, opens with a pensive, Maccabees-esque guitar line atop
some shuffling beats before breaking out in to full indie swirl and a baggy,
atmospheric swirl. The melodies and vocals are a bit pop-star does rock for me,
like when Robbie Williams had a go at pleasing the Gallaghers, but there’s
something pleasingly prog about the structure that it’s hard not to enjoy.
Elements of Madchester, hints of Shoegaze and a whole lot of indulgent jamming
but they keep things just the right side of the getting wanky. So, promising stuff
but not quite justifying the buzz for me on this evidence.
