Sir Sly aren't just a bunch of kids paddling in the shallow end of the river - they're the ones making the new waves in indie music.
An LA trio; which are shrouded by a cloak of a lazy summers days excitement and hold the key to the mystery surrounding the shoe-gazing scene are the latest band to really make you believe 2013 is going to be the year.
Since Sir Sly crept onto the scene last summer, they've been quietly working behind the scenes to bring three songs to the table; which feelings can only be described as feeling "vertigo". On their YouTube channel (SirSlyMusic) three songs have been posted in the past week, and all three of them bringing completely different chills of synth.
Ghost // Gold // Where I'm Going
Ghost // The delicate lyrics that speak of sadness and leaving have dramatic under-tones of hidden meanings and tell stories of love. The soft voice echoes throughout the track and is complimented by the sparkly booming of the synthesised beats. "Ghost" has the powerful emotion of a Maccabees song but with gut-punching power to make you double-take.
Gold // An electrifying song which is full of hazy emotions. The striking lyrics hit you hard and fast - with the catchy chorus playing, the tune will be left in your mind for days on end. But on "Gold" it isn't the lyrics that make this something for your ears to prick up to; it's the pungent and sharp piano riffs that leave you feeling speachless and full.
Where I'm Going // From the three new songs published on YouTube - "Where I'm Going" is the game-changer. Elongated emotion-filled strings of lyrics with hidden meanings arise from the sinister tone of the synthesiser. "All of my love/was wasted on you" mixed together with the adverse beats, really create a song worth the second glance.
