Attic Theory are game changers in the indie rock sound. They have constantly been awarded as one of the best rock bands to come out of Liverpool in recent years. They are a definitive look at how grunge and rock has evolved to become what it is now. Their latest single with Kevin Martin of Candlebox aims to give you that same shiver down your spine. This will be your favourite genre as a sensation. This is their latest single, Papier-Mâché.
The soft opening might be as misleading as it is a gentle rivulet to the waterfall. When the verse kicks in, there are no holds barred. Oceanic waves of distorted guitar along with kick-ass rhythm sections bring the house down. If you loved the tones and energy of their single Narrow Lines, this feeds a white-hot energy that you’ve missed in your rock playlists. The chorus reminds us how stellar the vocals sound, with precision centred production quality. The “woo-hoo” in the chorus along with some really well executed harmonics makes this single one of their best in terms of how a stadium rock track would sound. I’d also like to gush about the solo, tailored to the song as well as something you can sing along to.
The heist movie The Bank Job (2008) would be an awesome base for this song. Known for the fast-paced action sequences, the deception scenes would be ideal for this track. You can check out more Attic Theory with their revived, refined rock energy. Make sure you follow them and support them by giving their explosive songs a listen!
