'Smothered' is the new single from Oliver Wilde, taken from his forthcoming third LP Post-Frenz Container Buzz, due 17 February on Howling Owl Records. With his typically eerie, Elliot Smith-nodding hue, the multi-talented Bristolian melds woozy, gently haunting production with trademark vocal work to create this latest piece of thought-provoking alt. indie. Speaking of its accompanying album Wilde explains, "My first two albums were fairly simple. There was no attempt at arrangement, for example. These new songs are the first I’ve developed fully, using all that I’ve learnt in the last few years. It’s easily the most accessible music I’ve ever made." -G.O'B
