Wombo – “7 of Cups”

Last time we checked in with the dark energy of Louisville trio Wombo, we were praising their single, “One of These.” They’re back with another dirge, full of intentionally sour-sounding notes (e.g. Pile) and haunting vocals, this time called “7 of Cups.” It’s impossible not to bop along to the trudging bass anchor – it’s similarly difficult not to sway along to the spindly guitar work that hangs like a thick fog over the rest of the track. About the song, Wombo says: “The song is about losing time, forgetting/ being forgotten by time, and feeling trapped by time. The hourglass I found at an antique mall and it gave me the idea to have myself trapped inside a room as a clay version of myself by it.” Check out the music video on YouTube below – you can also find “7” on Spotify.

Wombo – “One of These”

The new song from Louisville-based trio Wombo exists at the apex of creepy and dreamy – a bass-driven dirge with spiraling, spindly guitar licks and an ever-present drum groove. The single in question, “One of These,” even gets a basement-dwelling music video, complete with spooky lighting in the drab (but apt) location. Falling somewhere between the smart dark-pop of Soccer Mommy and the twisted compositions of Pile, “One of These” is a one-of-a-kind song that, despite it’s uniqueness, never loses it’s sense of pretty melody. We think it will catch your ear in a good way. Check out the music video below – you can also find “One of These” on Apple Music, Spotify, and Bandcamp.
