Gloomy June re-emerge on single & video for "Save Anyone"
Completely blowing us away with their newest single “Save Anyone”, The Y Axes (now Gloomy June) have something truly special on their hands. Read on for our full review of the track, as well as a background and update on the band.
Before we fully dive into “Save Anyone”, this band deserves a much needed refresher. Formerly known as The Y Axes, these talented musicians have now transformed themselves into Gloomy June and presented this absolutely rocking new track. All set to impress at their upcoming shows at SXSW, big things are on the way for their new iteration, and by the sounds of it, we’re fully on board for whatever’s about to come.
Now that everyone’s up to date, let us please inform you about how much we’ve sincerely enjoyed both this song and its accompanying music video (linked below). To begin, they’ve so eclectically perfected a futuristic take on indie rock with pop punk roots. On the background of the track, it really aims to contextualize the wish to “save” people from suffering as this was written during the beginning of the pandemic in May 2020. Lyrically they’ve managed to keep things powerful and with the driving force of the inventive instrumentation, there’s nothing that shifts your focus away. Given that the music video is endearing as well, we think they’ve presented the perfect package on “Save Anyone”.
From start to finish, this song hit infinite highs in both the vocals and the way that they’ve constructed the instrumental. Every member gets their moment to shine, you can’t help but want to sing along, and it’s got just enough edge to feel slightly rebellious and angsty. Honestly, there’s something timeless, nostalgic, yet somehow futuristic about the way that they’ve conveyed themselves here. If this is any indication of what subsequent singles are going to sound like, please count us in for more.
In the meantime while we patiently await the follow up, don’t waste another moment not digging into “Save Anyone”. Additionally, we urge everyone out there to follow along and keep up to date with all future news from Gloomy June. Enjoy!
