Review:
‘See Red’ sees Echo Adore combine clever songwriting with a hazy rock sound. It has that droning out sound of Interpol and Bloc Party with the pop sensibilities of British India and Franz Ferdinand.
The guitar sounds are whirring, the percussion is on point, and the vocals portray all the emotion from the lyrics.
“There were a lot of violent events on the news during that time and we were trying to navigate that mindset,” say Echo Adore.
“One particular event inspired Damian to write the lyrics as an internal dialogue.
“The music and lyrics both began to reflect the anger and vengeance of the character in the song, a story about betrayal and disillusion.”
