Carrying on swiftly from the buzz of their previous single ‘All That Remains Won’t Be The Same’, Irish alternative rock band Otherkin continue in fine form with the release of their latest single ‘On & On’, coming alongside the announcement of UK tour dates this Autumn. The band have enjoyed significant success in recent times, with airplay support from BBC RADIO 1 as well as radio play back in Ireland and playlist support on all the main streaming platforms.
‘On & On’ is a swagger dripping gem as Otherkin flourish the glimmering electronic facet to their sound. Featuring a kick ass guitar riff, groove infested rhythm and darkly-smothered wall of sound this dazzling number swarms in, swanky, chic and engulfed in attitude. The raspy vocals pour over the infectious melody while the frazzling backdrop, elastic bass and shrilling guitars create the most breathtaking, adrenaline inducing listening experience. With a catchy chorus, peppy key jingles, rich production and mind melting dance-floor vibes this exhilarating new track is another gush of Otherkin’s outstanding sound. These guys are on a roll.
Speaking on their inspiration, the band say: ‘’We were listening to a ton of French House before making ‘On & On’ and felt inspired to make a song for the dance floor. As we were approaching it from the context of being a guitar band, we thought it would be cool to break the song up with a huge riff, bringing the two worlds together. We paired it with a story of a guy we know who’s a conniving, scheming weasel that’ll never change his ways, regardless of what happens to him.This song is like one fist in the air and one middle finger in the air to him.’’
