Were stoked to be premiering an absolute earworm today. Only A Matter Of Time is from Gold-Coast duo Wandering Bird, and will be released on all digital platforms tomorrow. <\/p>\n
The track is a captivating blend of pop and indie rock. It is deftly constructed, from the opening guitars to the trance-like repetition of the Only a matter of line, meshed with an edgy rhythm section that builds the mood to a crescendo. This is intoxicating indie rock, with a generous helping of electronica coupled with some tantalising drum machines. <\/p>\n
About the track, the band writes: <\/p>\n
The song is about fate and the whole process around it. It was at a time in life where I was hopeful of my future, but realised I had to reach for it myself. At the same time I have a weird installed belief in pre-determinism, so I was viewing it from a if fate allows it perspective. Its a lot of musing on autonomy in our own lives and how we all have this thing of looking forward into the future. I like writing about time, I think its the most innate thing we all experience. I also used some religious symbolism mixed with personal symbolism to create a sort of prayer without the faith. That goes under the more worldly experience lyric in the chorus at the end, blurring the lines between the personal and omniscient. <\/p>\n
Fans of Mancunian legends New Order and local heroes Underground Lovers should find plenty to love in Only A Matter Of Time. Give this one a couple of listens and youll be singing the chorus for days. <\/p>\n
The duo is comprised of Jack Holt (vocals, guitars, bass and synthesizers) and Kyle Thompson (drums and percussion). Theyve released a handful of tracks since their debut in 2021, including Candidate, Rain & Snow and Oh Well. <\/p>\n
