Indie Pop doesn’t get better than this.
Leeds connoisseurs of Indie Pop, Marsicans are back at it again with the absolute bops. ‘Summery In Angus’ is the latest taste of their debut album to come, and we love it!
Speaking on the track Marsicans explain, “’Summery in Angus’ was written around the time when the UK started naming storms and Storm Angus was all the rage. I was indoors wearing an over-the-top summery shirt and shorts, whilst it was horrible outside. My girlfriend said, “Look at you, all summery in Angus!” and that phrase seemed to resonate with me, despite it really not making that much sense at first glance.
So, the song is about the two sides of yourself: the not-so-good side which, no matter what fun you’re having, just clouds the back of your mind, and then the side which fights the bad thoughts and tries to keep you positive when everything seems to be going wrong. It’s the inner fight between those two sides. It starts off referencing lines from a really old poem my Grandad used to tell me when I was younger. There seems to be various versions which go back a few hundred years, but the ‘nonsense poem’ always made me laugh, and I thought it summed up the opposing sides perfectly”.
The fourth taste of the upcoming album, which is set to be a surefire contender for album of the year, it firmly places itself at the same level, if not higher than previous releases ‘Sunday’, ‘Juliet’ and ‘Can I Stay Here Forever (pt. II)’.
