San Diego four-piece Sights and Sages will have you humming along for days with their intensely hooky track “Aghori.” There’s more to this moody alt rock number than meets the eye, featuring a salient, falsetto-fueled chorus, racing drum beat, and a driving bassline to cement it all together. Their affinity for pop melodies does not go amiss here, while still maintaining a progressive edge with polyrhythms and a unique song structure. In the video for the track, Sights and Sages keep things wholesomely traditional by alternative/indie rock standards, showcasing band performance while toying with field of view and perception. “Aghori” comes straight from the band’s latest release, their EP Doubleplus.
