LA indie rock band Western Scene provide a sun soaked followup to their first EP with a new single, “Going Back.” Channeling ambient rock soundscapes similar to M83, the band blends together soaring vocal melodies with running guitar lines and crisp percussion, providing momentum while giving the track a bright, uplifting feel. It’s the ideal soundtrack for taking in the world around you, from a lazy drive down the coast to a beginner’s anxiety-inducing skydive towards the ground. The song’s lyric video takes this feeling and runs with it, stitching together scenes from Google Street View as each setting slips by. This is Western Scene’s fourth single release since their 2013 debut EP, with word of a sophomore album on the horizon. Take in “Going Back” in all its golden panoramic glory below.
