Introduced by a nuanced orchestral arrangement and Beatle-Esque harmonies, ‘A Little Off’ enters our musical life with elegance and soothing energy, sculpting an engaging and dreamy sonic outlook. In fact, listeners are bound to lose themselves among hypnotising flutes, a poignant piano and relatable vocals, embracing Matthew and the Arrogant Sea‘s visionary artistic universe with firm belief.
The creative journey will be even more rewarding towards the end of the song, with ‘A Little Off’ steadily building up to a full-band finale, so rich, kaleidoscopic and incredibly beautiful. Drums and saturated guitars enter the track with charisma and fierceness. It is a short burst, but a meaningful one.
Emerging from Denton, US, Matthew and the Arrogant Sea could be described as an indie band, although eventually, they end up becoming much more. Drawing from a wide pool of influences (among which one can find the mighty Modest Mouse), the group then proceed to build their own eclectic world. And we are here for it.
Taken from the band’s upcoming album, ‘If You Find Yourself Floating Away’, ‘A Little Off’ explores meaningful and challenging lyricism. As Matthew and the Arrogant Sea explain: “It delicately weaves together the threads of personal growth, courage, and liberation. We wanted the song to explore the profound beauty of shedding relationships that no longer serve us, while fearlessly embracing the unknown.”
