Song of the Day: Krooked Tongue- Nothing Ever Grows

Null

 Words by Anselm Anderson

Rock Trio Krooked Tongue returned last week with their latest single "Nothing Ever Grows", an ode to the tortured artist with a lack of creative bliss.

The band first entered the rock sphere with its debut EP " No Vacancy Hotel" in 2022, before following up with last year's "Deathproof". The feedback and extensive coverage of these two previous releases have heightened the band's profile, which concluded with August's tour in support of Kid Brunswick on his Dead Forever UK Tour. "Nothing Ever Grows" was recorded and produced by Josh Gallop at Stage 2 Studios in their hometown of Bristol, England. The song blends grungy riffs with energetic, distorted vocals, I feel the track is influenced by bands like Muse and Royal Blood.

The track begins with energetic, dissonant electric guitar chords followed by sombre vocals. The rhythms create tension over a frenetic, jagged grunge sound, while the uplifting, melodic chorus raises the dynamics with a sense of awakening. The track's urgency is maintained by thick, rumbling basslines, while the laid-back vocals sound frustrated. The middle eight features an instrumental breakdown with some nifty sound effects reminiscent of a dream state, before finishing with an explosive surge of riffage to signal the singer has found their spark.

Overall, Krooked Tongue delivers a slice of modern rock with a positive message.
