flycatcher – “Down”

Flycatcher has a vice-like, Venus-fly-trap-grip on who they are:   “… Twangy indie-rock, worn-in emo revival, and road ready anthems.”   Case in point, “Down,” the latest single from their upcoming release, due out October 24th. “Down” echoes the noisy, guitar-driven approach of contemporaries like Hotline TNT or Microwave while nodding to ’90s greats like Nada Surf. Slamming chords at a mid-tempo grind while repeating a catchy refrain always does wonders to make a song singleworthy, and the band doesn’t alter that tried-and-true formula here… Expect big emotions with misty-eyed sentimentality which makes sense given the song’s subject matter – here’s a little bit more from them about the song’s meaning:   “It’s a nod to past friends and watching them slip into their old ways.”   “Down” is available everywhere. Soundcloud is embedded below, but you can find it on Spotify and Apple Music too.   flycatcher · Down

Flycatcher – “Sodas in the Freezer”

With the wind at their backs, Flycatcher soars through the sky on their new track “Sodas in the Freezer.” The original riff laid down dates all the way back to 2017, and after five years, it’s aged like fine wine. The somewhat dark, somber, lyrics and melodies were astonishingly written on the way home from work. Distorted riffs running parallel with clean cut vocals doused in a little reverb make “Sodas in the Freezer” an instant classic; it also features a vintage music video directed, shot, and edited by Kris Khunachak. Flycatcher is representing the alternative rock of New Brunswick, NJ and catch them at Asbury Park on May 21st, don’t forget your sodas!
