‘Angeline’ is the instantly memorable new single from Liverpool-based indie rockers Keyside, and it’s a thrilling and intensely rhythmic masterpiece! Straight from the get-go, you’re immersed in Keyside’s sweet and breezy soundscape, where melodic bass lines, upbeat drums, sun-soaked guitar riffs, and classic British indie-rock vocals seamlessly blend. Drawing on influence from iconic bands like The La’s, The Smiths, and The Police, ‘Angeline’ captures and pays homage to the past, while introducing an exhilarating and fresh new sound at the same time!
Lyrically, the tune takes on a much darker aura. Telling the tale of a woman grappling to provide for herself and her family, ‘Angeline’ focuses on the pressures and struggles that ultimately lead this woman to the brink of collapse. I’m not going to lie…it’s a little unexpected given the cheerful sonic nature of the track, but it showcases an act who will produce what they feel is necessary, not merely what is fashionable at the time.
‘Angeline’ is Keyside’s third single to date and follows ‘Paris to Marseille’ and ‘Lights Out’ respectively. Both of those songs have over 24,000 plays on Spotify and ‘Angeline’ is also well on its way. The band are clearly resonating with listeners – and it’s not hard to understand and hear why!
