Who can’t agree that summer vibes are all about love and energy? And that’s why the fresh release by Wild Horse, “Angles,” combines both vibrant sonic ecstasy and the thrill of falling in love.
The Brighton-based band Wild Horse presents the bombastic hit “Angles,” after the release and success of their first release in 2023, “COUGAR.” They pooled their ravishing skills and charismatic performances and poured it all into the infectious and relatable-to-many tune.
The brothers Jack and Henry Baldwin, along with their best friend from primary school, Ed Barnes, make up the English trio that blends Rock, Pop, and Funk, adds a nostalgic flair, and wraps it all up with a groovy, contemporary execution.
“Angles” is an energizing single that gets one’s feet loose instantly. The song has a harmonic, dreamy intro, which sets the mood for a light-hearted, yet shaking atmosphere. I mentioned earlier that it’s sonically euphoric, but the kind of affection’s thrill I referred to isn’t entirely benign; rather, it’s bittersweet. The lyrical content draws an enticing narrative of a relevant story of being excited yet confused while taking the first step to tell someone you love them, while they somehow give you some mixed signals that drive you insane.
A captivating vocal performance works along with the hooking riffs and dynamic drumming to give a pulsing effect that matches the theme’s energy. The upbeat melody and the vintage touch easily transport one under the shiny ball on a dance floor. The soulful, spirited vocals with the notable accent and the passionate delivery with the fascinating harmonies bring the story to life and urge one to paint a picture in their minds.
Love may have some “hard to read” angles; however, the trio aces making every angle of their song a polished one! Enjoy the tasty, uplifting listening experience.
