"taste the unknown..."
The thing about music is that everyone hears songs differently based on their own lives, their own artistic inspirations and social cues and buttons that are pushed. When I hear the beautiful impactful vibrancy of "Fear" by Australian singer-songwriter Brendon Moon I am taken back as much as I am thrust forward. The big waves of sound, sliding chord shifts, power punching bass and drums, gentle wailing lead guitar melodies and most especially Brendon's vocal aesthetic that has a tender, yet powerful androgynous quality signals 90's indie rock tones in my head and heart. The overall aesthetic here makes me thing almost immediately of an edgy amalgam of bands like The Cranberries and The Smashing Pumpkins (first and foremost) with a hint of 'emo grunge' tones ala artists like Sunny Day Real Estate.
Brendon shares:
"Fear is about being lost in the everyday and conjuring an unpredictability of what lied ahead. After coming out of the deepest part of my struggles and eventually out through the other end, it taught me a lot about myself and that facing the struggle was what I had to do in order to understand the distortion created."
