London duo Strange Boy continue to make a name for themselves as one of the most inventive and musically exciting bands around with two new tracks from their upcoming Suburbia EP out in the last few days – ‘Hot Breath’ and ‘Love Remains’.
Hot Breath is a menacing electronic cut, with growling bass paired with fearful inhalation samples, as Kieran Brunt’s voice guides you through the darkness towards a chorus that starts to uplift and marches you towards euphoria.
Meanwhile, Love Remains keeps things simple and elegant with Kieran Brunt’s rich vocals the driving force above hanging, haunting, pulsating synths, that slowly edge to a crescendo of noise, before falling back again and giving Brunt’s voice room to disarm.
