Clock Opera are by no means new to the music scene, having released an EP back in the early days of 2010, however, the release of ‘Closer’ could be a significant leap towards gaining a wider audience through the musical aptitude of the band exemplified in this new release.
Commencing with a chunky instrumental, a vibrant palette of sound to paint a picture of fierce intensity, this intoxicating experience evokes undivided intrigue and anticipation.
The rich vocals embroidered with rasp and vibrato resonate over the buzzing of the bass, illuminating the strength of both the layering in the track and its depth as eventually you peel away to the more simplistic yet in no way bland areas, where nothing but a mellow voice and a pounding drum beat concentrate the attention to the lyrical aspect of the song.
