Prolific Tennessee based DIY recording artist Matt Addison’s Mythical Motors create glistening psychedelic power-pop in which every melody hits like a hook. New single Court Of The Beekeeper is a breathless rush of contemporary energy bathed in a golden glow of heady nostalgia, comforting in its familiarity, startling in its giddy execution.
With a back catalogue that frequently draws comparison to the likes of Guided By Voices, Wire and the pummelling power chords of Pete Townshend, it’s clear that Mythical Motors wear their influences with pride. The wonder lies in their ability to transcend said influences with a dizzying lo-fi melodic flair, conjuring a new kind of magic.
Álvaro Lissón’s crisp mastering draws out every sonic detail, placing Court Of The Beekeeper’s abstract charm firmly in the now, and leaving absolutely no doubt that forthcoming album Upside Down World is destined to be another top tier addition to what is a truly wonderful body of work.
Upside Down World arrives 12th April via Repeating Cloud, pre-order here.
