The early noughties have pushed to the forefront lots of new, and interesting bands, and alongside them come The Lotus. If Muse and The Deftones met in a pub and had a cheeky couple of Sambucca’s and hit the town and ended the night with a ride on a spaceship, that’s exactly what this song sounds like.
Combining heavy guitars with mellow vocals and subtle keys, their new single Mars-X builds up into a rapturous breakdown with elegant bass lines and thrumming drum beats, combined with Muse-esque backing vocals. A definite must listen, and I definitely can’t wait to hear more from these guys!
