Back with pride and charisma, Camens starts the new year strong with ‘Cynical’, an electrifying and fuzzy single with surprisingly meaningful lyricism. Hailing from Stoke-on-Trent, the English group has long showcased their fierce character, catching the attention of a plethora of publications and radios around the country.
How could it not be that way? Blending mellow vocals with a sound that’s sharp, compressed and slightly noisy, Camens offer a vibrant emotional package that’s bound to inspire even the most apathetic of listeners. Riff after riff, drum fill after drum fill, the talented band will conquer your heart. As it conquered ours.
‘Cynical’ is the perfect evidence of that; along a punchy yet nuanced groove, the song contrasts mellow verses with all-out choruses, something that reminds us of a fictional Death Cab for Cutie vs The Oasis wrestling match. Exploring difficult questions around a relationship, Camens reiterate the need to be ‘Cynical’, a state of mind that gets mirrored in the icy and intense instrumental.
