Video Of The Day SPARKLER
From San Diego, California hail the ‘sonically ambiguous’ Shoegaze foursome Sparkler, who draw from the ’90s throwback My Bloody Valentine trippy vibes to put a refreshing twist into the mesmeric turbulence of their latest DIY video/song “Acid Casualty,” the first single off the band’s anticipated debut album “Big Sonic Chill” due out on March 3, 2023, via Chicago’s independent label Flesh & Bone Records.
Heady lyrics search for insight in a psychedelic realm of interconnectedness, as an immersive blinding surge of billowing swarms from harsh droning guitar effects, sunken hard-hitting drum beats, and low throbbing bass lines, veil dreamy, bewitching ghostlike vocals behind a distorted mercurial chaos of carefree longing and angsty doom.
Lysergic DIY visuals capture the dissociative moods of the soundtrack by layering a blurry depth-defying performance with nostalgic outdoor scenery, shapeshifting shadows, and melting trace overlays to slow, time-lapsed flows of motion into surreal timeless introspections of escapism and bliss.
