Hailing from London, England, is indie outfit The Wrong Man, and they have recently delivered a dark, atmospheric masterpiece, “Return to Silence”. The new single is just their third release since they started releasing music, but by the sounds of it, they’ve been in the game for a long time.
… ahaunting, surf-tinted London alt-rock anthem that hooks you in from the very first spin.
The intro is very dark, cinematic, and hauntingly reflective, with some shadowy vocals entering the fold before an undertone of twinkly synths enters the track (before it becomes more dreamy towards the one-minute mark).
For me, as soon as the drums and surf-tinted guitars came in, it really took on a new lease of life. I was totally on board way before the halfway point. As soon as those jazzy moments came in, I knew I was going to be sticking around for the long haul on this one and definitely giving it a couple more plays, just to be on the safe side.
Suffice to say, as soon as the song finished for the first time, I was already hovering over the replay button, wanting to give it another spin. Considering they also have two more songs on Spotify, this track seems to be a gateway song for the band. If you’re looking to discover a new alternative act from London, this is certainly something your ears will enjoy.
