DREAM PHASES – “SPEED OF LIGHT”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE VIDEO PREMIERE
L.A. neo-psych group, Dream Phases, share “Speed of Light”, the first single off their upcoming LP, Phantom Idol. The album is due 7/12 and is set to continue the shoegaze, psychedelic, indie rock sound that Dream Phases has continually grown and mastered over the course of their two former albums. The single is being released alongside a dreamy music video that’s sure to send your consciousness into the ethos.
Frequent collaborator, Matt Lingo, described “Speed of Light as “…An ethereal wash of choral vocals giv[ing] way to one of the most electrifying riffs in Dream Phases’ discography, and from here, all bets are off. ‘Speed of Light’ is a sonic hall of mirrors, constantly folding in on itself and reshaping. “I can’t come back, I can’t come back down”, sings Brandon Graham–fitting for a song that represents a new center of gravity for this band.”
Expanding on the fluid and evolving sonic experience of “Speed of Light” bandmember, Brandon Graham shares how “‘Speed of Light’ is a full on collaboration between bandmates, as each member contributed to the final piece. The song is unique because there are many tempo changes throughout, and it doesn’t follow a typical structure. Shane wrote most of the instrumental to the song and Keveen was influenced by just finishing Einsteins’ Relatively. I helped with some of the vocal melodies and guitar parts. The song then came together completely in the studio with the help of producer Matt Schuessler. It feels like one of our more unique songs, and is quite a challenge to pull off live”.
“Speed of Light” and its music video are out now on all DSPs. LP, Phantom Idol, is due 7/12 via Coconut Spaceship.
