Murphy Radio : Autumn
Murphy Radio
Autumn
Indonesian math rock band Murphy Radio is back with another vibrant and colourful single. A venture that feels a little more free-flowing than their 2018 self-titled album, Autumn sees the band bringing it back to their initial core sound and influences. I've always appreciated math rock bands who flaunt technical skill while still remaining musical, and these guys knock it right out of the park.
Autumn brings a more dreamy and floaty aesthetic to the table when compared to their previous releases. Sparkly synth lines over jangly guitars evoke a sense of longing through its amalgamation of soft colours, all while the song drives on. The track ends with a drone of harmonies layered over a playful piano melody that is supported by a guitar motif.
Happy yet sad; light yet dark. Somewhat hopeful.
