Out now: Insomniac Bears - Break up the Shapes

First track off the debut album is titled “Break up the shapes” and will be released by Fysisk format December 11th 2020. The track extends the voice of Insomniac Bears, only with a more hungry approach that shows a dynamic group drawing on each others respective pasts but also on the new energy they discovered playing together. Their wide embrace of genre could feel like a tasty mash-up or a prosperous mix of indie styles. Yet with their distinctive and confident voice, it allows them to swoop through soundscapes light as air. In front we have MC Thomas Bratlie who playfully sings his way through post harmonic vocal hooks with a distinctive nerve and energetic boost. We haven’t heard him that angry since the early years of his formerly mothership Rumble in Rhodos. But he also offers vulnerability and honesty with a more calm voice giving the song a full dynamic character. Backed up by nostalgic hockey arena synthesizers, fiery indie guitars and explosive drums they create a complex soundscape where the instrumentation repel each other with each element blooming and reducing like blobs of oil in water. Look out for this fresh breath of northern air spreading hope into all locked down homes before Christmas.
