Single Review: Heresy

The new single from Viices, Heresy, feels like a mix between low key ska and EDM. It’s a very cool mix. With the vibe of the guitar combined with a chill beat and impassioned lyrics, Heresy ebbs and flows to allow for a repeated chord progression to have a solid structure.

About half way through, a more intense guitar comes in and changes the feel. What I like about the track is that it’s not trying to be complicated, yet there are new things you’ll pick up on throughout multiple listens. Pay attention to the sound of what appears to be a tuba, and it sort of sounds like a warning horn.

Overall, the lyrics and vocals are really the centre of the song; ”We say that these things won’t make a fool of us. But talk is cheap and so are we.”

It’s a sombre affair, but that doesn’t make it depressing. You can feel what Viices is feeling through the performance and the way in which the music revolves around it.
