JOE’s Song Of The Day #630: Silverbacks ‘Dunkirk’

Silverbacks are back sounding golden.

We really do like the Silverbacks, we like the cut of their jib. We featured them before with a cracker of a tune called 'Just For A Better View' and now they are back impressing us again. Underpinned by an insistent, nagging bassline and creepy crawly guitar lines, it provides the ideal vehicle for frontman Daniel O’Kelly’s stream of consciousness ramblings about marital strife, the perfect sandcastle and spotting a con artist when he sees one. Sure what else is there to sing about? Produced by Girl Band’s Daniel Fox, the track lurches forth, pressure building from the undulating backbeat and layers of skronking guitars accenting Daniel’s increasingly frazzled yelps before finally collapsing into a sugar-sweet coda. Indie kids no more, Silverbacks mean business and ‘Dunkirk’ is a powerful first move. https://youtu.be/trMhSw5xcp4 Clip via Silverbacks The band continue to evolve and you can keep tabs on them by checking out their Facebook page right here.
