Beautifully introspective songwriting, piercing truths poetically delivered, to feel both intimate and broadly relatable at the very same time – Aftereye set a moody soft-rock vibe, with sleepy vocals and compelling lyrics, for Someday.
Following the writing and vocal style of independent singer-songwriters ranging from Flower Face to Radiohead, Aftereye draw you in quite easily with the opening lines of this song, and proceed to tighten their grip, as this boldly vulnerable track rolls along with quiet intensity.
“Always wanted to ask about one of those nights but please, not face to face… Someday you’ll look at your own mess.”
Initially a stripped-back, guitar and vocal presentation, Someday later brings in some mildly experimental distorted synth sounds, a kind of sweeping sense of rising energy and anticipation. The vocal rhythm switches in line with this, and the lyrics further their mystique and honesty in a way that likely conjures up unique feelings and memories for everyone who dives in.
Beautifully simple but complex, from set-up to substance, Someday is a gorgeously alternative gem of an indie track, and marks a stunning introduction to the fearlessly genuine, dreamy escapism of all things Aftereye.
