The sparse texture of the track brings out a cold atmosphere, which emphasises the whole eeriness of the song, and as the haunting falsetto vocals come in, a shiver is sent down your spine. Harmonies are tight and the synths compliment the lead vocals. Although the drums occasionally sound a little disjointed from the other instruments, it all sounds tight.
As a single to their self-titled album, ‘Miscellany’ follows suit of previous song formulas – albeit feeling slightly dry and desiring a little more texture. Fans of the industrial synths and pulsing syncopated drum beats will be very pleased indeed, and the catchy vocal melodies will see you coming back for more.
