Melodic Indie Shoegaze Act Sleepy Gonzales Share New Single “Mercy Kill”
Surrey-based indie shoegaze act Sleepy Gonzales have shared the title track from their newly released five-track EP Mercy Kill. Lead by the duetting vocals of Cristian and Ally, the dreamy and serene track channels elements from the likes of Broken Social Scene, Big Thief, and the melancholic Americana-tinged sound of The Backseat Lovers.
Patiently moving through hazy guitar parts and haunting vocal harmonies, the song finds its explosiveness gradually, crescendoing into an instrumental wall of effects, horns, and clockwork percussion.
