As they tease their upcoming second full-length We Are The Nearly Deads that’ll be out 2nd of June, the Nashville-based rockers The Nearly Deads dropped their dreamy ballad Wild on March 3rd, 2023. With laid-back melodies and a chill mood, Wild will easily slip into your “on-repeat” playlist, let me tell you more about it.
Soothing melodies and warm sound are how The Nearly Deads decided to approach their new calming ballad Wild. Its opening arpeggios combined with those powerful charismatic vocals will keep the listener following them and looking for more as Wild subtly progresses into bigger soundscapes. Wild has a fluid catchy groove that matches its easy-going writing style, within a structure that preserved its mood, and adding that violin gave it a whole new deeply emotional layer, showing The Nearly Deads’ detailed music writing and sense of mood and melody. They managed to create a solid structure with smooth progressions that kept on pushing their sound boundaries without compromising their mood or overdoing things.
Wild is a calming soothing tune with beautiful dynamics and streaming lovely melodies that slowly carry the listener throughout its floating flow. It’s one of those tunes with no complementary layers, every instrument, melody, and line here plays a major role in its musical and emotional progression, all bound together in a catchy bright mood that made me grab a drink and play it over and over again. Looking forward to more from The Nearly Deads, keep on rocking guys. Cheers!
