Sleeping Limbs - From Indian Lakes

From Indian Lakes is a band that has a sense of depth and attention to detail that is hard to find nowadays. When I first discovered them opening for Lydia, The Maine, and Anberlin, I found them to be far more impressive than Lydia, and equally as professional as the two headliners who had quite a bit more experience. They have a sound that is fully their own, and they know how to put on a fantastic show while still remaining humble and grateful to their fans.

When I discovered that a new album, Absent Sounds, was to be released in October, I was ecstatic to say the least. If the lead single, "Sleeping Limbs", is any indication of the rest of the album, then I foresee this being one of my favorite albums of the year. It is able to be both upbeat and relaxed, haunting and beautiful, a mixing of contrasts that blend in a marvelous manner. The sharp drum hits complement the smooth guitar lines in the verses, and the instrumental erupts in the layers that create a mesmerizing depth in the chorus. And Joey Vannuchi's vocals are on point as always, this time displaying a more calm side, yet still retaining power and a sense of intensity that makes his voice one of the most memorable today.

If you have never given these guys a listen, you will not be disappointed. Check out "Sleeping Limbs" and the rest of their works on Spotify, and fall in love.

5/5
