A new, yet familiar sound is explored expertly on In Athens’ debut single, ‘Or Anything’.
In Athens – ‘Or Anything’
In Athens boasts an array of musical backgrounds and emits a self-proclaimed unique sound. They stay true to this vision on ‘Or anything’. Mystic guitars blend with cascading drums and send us into a new realm. Everything about this sound is fresh and raw. In Athens have intentionally crafted this song to be different and new, and in doing so have opened the door to a new world.
The vocals are transcendent and glide across the track, in between and outside the hazy mesh of hypnotic sounds. The lyrics paint the picture of human existentialism and collide perfectly with the instrumentals to cascade the listener into a real-life lucid dream. Post the second chorus, the vocal riffs are majestic, and the guitar solos clash with the song in a way I can’t remember ever experiencing before. One final chorus closes the song and forces us further into the unknown.
’Or Anything’ by In Athens is so new and bold that I dare say music may have found a new path. Reminiscent of all the best alternative music of the past, but in its own lane completely. ‘Or Anything’ is their debut single from their upcoming EP ‘MIRRORISM’, and I, for one, cannot wait for more music from In Athens.
‘In Athens produce a debut single for the ages with ‘Or Anything’, a genre-bending anthem for the masses’
