Following their signing to Cool Thing Records, ‘A Cause In Distress’ released their debut single ‘Lumbering’ on 7th August!
They describe themselves as ‘The three-headed love child of Nine Inch Nails, Fugazi & Radiohead, if it was fathered by David Lynch’, and honestly I can’t think of a more fitting description.
‘Lumbering’ has a strong electronic presence throughout, which creates a pretty unique sound when paired with the more laid-back, mysterious vocals. The rumbling drum beat is a definite stand out feature and grabs your attention right from the start, almost creating quite an intense, haunting tone. This, alongside the seeming simplicity of the guitar makes for an intriguing, varied listen, adding a new layer to electric rock!
