Howless – To Repel Ghosts

Le estado dando unas cuantas vueltas y creo que jamás he puesto una artista o banda mejicana en el blog. Quizá, porque aquí, nos llegan unas propuestas más comerciales a las que no suelo prestar atención. Pero lo cierto es que me consta que allí hay una escena independiente de lo más vibrante. Principalmente, de grupos a los que les tira bastante el post-punk y la oscuridad. Pero también hay…

Howless have shared their new single/video ‘Levels’ and they are also announcing their debut LP. The Mexico City-based noise-pop/shoegaze quartet's debut LP, To Repel Ghosts, is due February 18, 2022 via Static Blooms Records

To Repel Ghosts is an album that grapples with big themes, an album that suggests nervous foreboding and strikes different levels of consciousness. 35 minutes of beautifully crafted noise pop, consisting of eight dynamic songs that perfectly represent the sonic depth and magnitude of Latin America’s newest indie darlings.

‘Levels’ is the lead single and the second track on the album; a crash intro of chimney guitar paired with arpeggiated synthesizers, and 808 tom fills, gives way to an up beat rhythm and hook, leading to a strong memorable chorus, revealing a strength of natural pop song writing. Quite easily a song that could have been included on the NME C86 mixtape with writing that was influenced by the lyrical meaning from ‘Goodbye Horses’ by William Garvey. “Transcendence over those who see the world only as earthy and finite.”
