It\u2019s a crossover of alternative rock with synthesisers going off, and a catchy chorus which is what attracted me to the song originally. Let\u2019s break it down, there\u2019s a soundscape of an intro I\u2019m listening to this on headphones right now, and everything\u2019s panning around me\u2026 The tom intro with synths floating around and building up and then comes the drop\u2026 guitars playing a great riff counter mingled with arpeggiated synths. I like the harmonies and how the vocals are sung as a call and response\u2026 And there\u2019s whispered vocals in there too! It\u2019s like for me there\u2019s so much hidden with this track, and it just gets better and better with every listen. I could write so much about this but I can\u2019t wait to see what else Sea Fever has up their sleeves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Call out to Sea Fever.
