North Atlantic Oscillation have just released ‘Drawing
Maps From Memory’ it is the first single to
be taken from their forthcoming album ‘Grappling
Hooks’ and it is a really strange sounding
song that feels like it was recorded under water
as it is all dreamy and bubble sounding which is
obviously the style that they were going for.
Despite sounding slightly unreal and dreamy ‘Drawing
Maps From Memory’ is an alright song, it
is not the kind of song that you hear every day
and instrumental you have to give North Atlantic
Oscillation major Kudos as everything from the
tingling piano piece, to the banging drums beats
right down to the chunk guitar riffs are unusual
yet so listenable, the dreaminess comes from the
vocals which on paper should sound odd against
the instrumental work but somehow works really
well along side.
I feel North Atlantic Oscillation are defiantly
a band to watch and I am extremely interested
to see what else they have come up with for their
debut album.
4/5
