Here’s a trad alt-rock band with a twist. Oginalii have many of the elements of 90s alt-rock that so many bands plunder. What is different though is the fact that they seem more interested in texture, and in the sound of their instruments under the filter of guitar pedals and production than they are about choruses.
Killer Whale plays indie rock with the confidence of musicians who’ve just recently departed a Hall & Oates session and nailed it. Their demeanor and sense of style tell a similar account.
There’s great singing here done in a drawl reminiscent of Leon Russell, or Dr. John. There’s little this group has to prove to anyone and, so, the nonchalant attitude is unlikely to be merely an act.
Single gets released on July 31st, 2020
