Hailing from the vibrant British music scene, The Kites have become an enigmatic force in the world of indie/alternative rock. With their latest single, "Drunk in Japan," this talented band is taking their musical prowess to new heights, leaving audiences captivated and awaiting more.
The Kites are comprised of lead vocalist, Joe and drummer/brother Ollie, guitarist Jake, and most recently bassist Elodie. Their music has an unmistakable British charm with a modern twist and this track exuberates the excitement and energy they bring to the scene.
“Drunk in Japan” offers an auditory journey that of some synonymous bands and inspiration to them in Twenty-One Pilots & Wunderhouse which only further beckons listeners into a world of wistful storytelling and immersive soundscapes. The song encapsulates the essence of wanderlust, evoking a sense of adventure and introspection.
One of the striking aspects of "Drunk in Japan" is the band's ability to blend rock and pop elements seamlessly, creating a distinctive sound that is both familiar and fresh. The instrumentation is nothing short of sublime and vocalization pairs like a puzzle piece. The intricate guitar melodies and the solid rhythm section, breathe life into the narrative.
Lyrically, the song's storytelling is evocative and poignant. It captures the essence of being swept away by the allure of a foreign country while simultaneously feeling lost in a complex relationship. The chorus, in particular, is a moment that resonates with anyone who has experienced the intoxicating beauty and heartache of love in a foreign setting.
I look forward to hear/see more, as I'm sure you all do, but in the meantime, go stream "Drunk in Japan" down below!
