Tottenham four-piece Our Mother continue to reinvent their approach to fringe pop with their first release of the year, ‘Heaven’. Compared to the trap-punctuated and R&B-influenced ‘Just Don’t’ and the avant spareness ‘Age Of Empirez’, this new offering once again sounds so different. Bass womps, glassy keys and jazzy horns are clipped and looped, to create a bouncy, verging on dance track. Fronted by an almost falsetto vocal, these quirky electronics begin to fall into a pattern of repetition as the lyrics centre around one word, “heaven”. For a song concerning itself with an idea of afterlife, the music video seems an odd portrayal. The four band members John Hartley, Paul Kowalewski, Liam Garrett and Joseph Charlton appear to be taking part in a local karaoke night, complete with awkward stares and too many cocktails. The increasingly obscure images of animals, food and scenery do little to explain what this “heaven” is, but seems totally fitting for Our Mother’s alternative synth-pop banger. - HT
