LIST PICK
THE WANTS CONTAINER
The Wants reeled us in with the taught lead track from their forthcoming new album just a matter of weeks ago. Following up 'The Motor' with an equally tension filled cut, 'Container' centres around an undulating bass synth rhythm. Backed by a krauty, picked bass guitar, the intentionally repetitive beats keep the track grounded as layers of wild guitar feedback apply pressure in all the right places. Leaving space for guitarist/vocalist Madison Velding-VanDam's lyrical stream-of-consciousness to shine through, 'Container' is a mildly sadistic exposition of the mundanity of modern life. The Wants debut album Container will arrive on the 13th of March via Council Records. -Holly Mullineaux
