I like the textures in “Dispel,” the reflective backing vocals from fellow Vancouver act Harlequin Gold, and the layers of instrumentals during the chorus. While aching and accusatory in nature (“I’m just tired of waiting for what feelings you allow”), it’s telling of a larger narrative of fault on both parties. 

Stay tuned for his debut album, Lash, out March 22nd on Afterlife Music.

Led by Justice McLellan's communicative, humble vocals (“You’re coming down, reaching immeasurable lows”), there is significant pain and distance in demeanor. Gradually, listeners hear a new page turn and a degree of hope for this pairing; colourful synths and a buoyant melody arise (“Grab your bag and let’s go, the sun’s coming out”). A sense of adventure can reinvigorate even the worst routines, and “Feel Nothing” hits the right notes that invoke the strain and relief of it all. 

Stream it below, and stay tuned for Lash out this March.
