Single Review: Let Me Go

Opening with a formidable power riff this debut track from Christchurch based Etheran really grabs you by the throat, and it’s a track that has many shades. The strong melodic verses that are sung by the clean voice of lead singer Lita Macabeo is smooth and wholesome, whereas the chorus sections burst with scolding vocals and a burst of drums that lifts the power and emotion with great intensity.

After the power chorus we fall back to the tuneful verses sung by Lita, with nice segments that harmonise effortlessly to a guitar lick. These pockets of gentrified passages lead perfectly to the more metal inspired sections that ultimately takes us back to the awesome guitar riff that started the track.

All in all, it’s a thoughtful and unique mix of styles that works surprisingly well, undoubtedly a killer song live, so turn it up and check it out.
