When / Who Is The Dub
Slow Fiction is a NYC quintet that has recently released a new single titled When, which is now available on Speedy Wunderground as part of the Speedy Singles series.
When showcases the band sprinting toward a finish line, pushing themselves forward across an urgent and confrontational three minutes. The opening words from vocalist Julia Vassallo, "You are a clock without a face, You are a mouth without the taste", set the tone as the band grapples with the feeling that something is missing from the world.
Vassallo reflects on the track, stating, "I think everyone has had a moment where their expectation of the world, a relationship, the audience they are performing for falls short, and it sends you into a wild spiral downwards. Losing faith feels so desperate, like falling into a pit of snakes. And the snakes all have faces that seem familiar, and they're talking, but the words are all garbled. I guess this was trying to get to the bottom of that pit of disillusionment, or maybe get out of it altogether."
When by Slow Fiction is a precise and controlled display of intensity, as the band attempts to find peace amidst the chaos of navigating a world that can often disappoint. Their sound is a blend of raw, sweeping fuzz reminiscent of Sonic Youth and The Jesus and Mary Chain, combined with elements of noughties era guitar and contemporary angst, resulting in a nostalgic yet compelling sound.
