Last year, members of Spy, Leer, and Stickup Kid formed SUPERWORLD. You may think, from their name, that they're joining Superheaven and Superbloom in making super-grungy tunes. You'd be wrong. They've got too much energy for that. They're blending screamo and math-rock to create some very emo anthems. You can hear it in today's "The Dream," which is a new single from their just-announced, sorta-eponymous debut full-length Super World.
“I think for any group working within this sort of guitar-driven music it can be easy to overengineer parts because we all have so many influences to draw upon,” guitarist Dan Vo says. “It felt right to lean into that tendency here. All the instruments are constantly trading lines back and forth, with contrasting layered vocals and the addition of piano and trombone. As fast and aggressive as we were playing, the melodic elements were key to keeping listeners engaged.”
Super World contains October's "Locked Room" in addition to the tracks from their Surefire EP. Check out "The Dream" below.
