We are truly intrigued by the folks at Funeralcare. ‘Marathon’ is the piece that caught our attention: a fierce, playful and nuanced effort that likes to tread the fine line between dream pop and drier indie tones. Such eclecticism is a daily occurrence in the Manchester-based outfit’s sonic universe. Blending noisy electronica and sharp guitars, Funeralcare showcase not only their willingness to experiment, but also their acute taste, a deeply-rooted sense of beauty in the face of unpredictability.
‘Marathon’ confirms what we just said. On the surface, it might appear like your typical indie record, yet various layers of witty synths and sound designs make sure it stays fresh and bold. Female vocals completely capture the listener’s attention, offering catchy melodies and a pop-like lusciousness.
‘Marathon’ is taken from Funeralcare’s homonymous EP, out now.
