Manor - Is This What You Really Want?

Grotesqualizer

The Melbourne two-piece band has shared their latest single.

“Is This What You Really Want?” is written out of the disastrous situation with the forest fires in Australia, raging since last year. The track is like a paralyzing, numbing picture, full of restrained pain and despair. There’s proclaiming guitar post-dub, careful pulse of thick drums and deep bass, Caitlin Duff’s mesmeric, viscous vocals with a trip-hop intonation. All this is built on a lo-fi blurriness, where tension is wrapped in dream pop and neo-psychedelia. Immersing in the immense furrow of sound and lyrics, by 2:30 you will reach an exciting dusky ambient crossing and stay there for the remaining 3 minutes.
