The artist’s nuanced and thoughtful indie rock sound continues to resonate and shine on the engrossing new single
On her engrossing new single ‘merry go round (carousel), CLOUT favourite Maria Lane continues to establish the thoughtful and intoxicating nature of her indie rock sound, using the fairground attraction as a metaphor for the cyclical disagreements that occur in a relationship and the way that they just seem to ride around in circles along the way.
The track has a really searching and powerful feel to it throughout, especially through the emotion and drive in the vocals and the way that the artist channels so much into them as it progresses. The sensation of feeling unheard and unfulfilled in a relationship is something that many listeners will resonate and find solace with, and the track articulates these breakdowns in communication and the resulting conflict in a way that feels human and real and feels all the more resonating for it.
