South Coast quartet Flowvers have dropped stratospheric indie anthem ‘Far Away’ which oozes out frenzied guitars.
It follows up on the Portsmouth band’s Old Chapel Demos EP, featuring raw rock anthem ‘When It Comes To It’.
Bringing back their trademark hook-laden sound, ‘Far Away’ is a mammoth number from the get-go with infectious riffs and primal percussion. The track’s fuzzy guitars and distorted instrumentals are something different, giving Flowvers a cool new edge.
Speaking about the track the band say: “‘Far Away’ was written over the last two years. The initial hook was what Stan used to play when warming up in rehearsals and it morphed into the intro and then it was plain sailing from there.
“We jammed it and it became more and more apparent that when we came to record it would need a big sound.
“The lyrics talk about angst, a recurrent theme in our songs. Lines like ‘Take me so far away’ captured the feeling of a lockdown where one may have felt like they had nowhere to go. We hope everyone enjoys the song.”
‘Far Away’ also marked the second instalment of the band’s club night Flow Forever, which took place at The Loft in their hometown of Portsmouth where they played alongside Shame Face, Cowboyy and XOCKHA. With plenty more of this in their locker, the feeling that this four-piece are onto something big is palpable.
