It was last month, with the release of their track Devil Dance that we were first introduced to the spirited indie-rock sounds of The Tints. Let me tell you, this band really know how to write a chorus. Their music brims with an earnest kind of energy; an emotive and cathartic element that will capture you completely.
On their latest release, Sunday 4am, the group deliver an exuberant and youthful anthem. It’s a song about staggering through the streets at 4am on Sunday morning, with existential thoughts flooding your head and heart – a feeling we can all relate to, and honestly, a feeling we all dearly miss.
Sydney-based outfit The Tints have unveiled their latest single Sunday 4am; an epic celebration of youthfulness… warts and all.
While Devil Dance incorporated more of an upbeat and punchy groove, Sunday 4am is an epic slow-burner. Clocking in at just under five-and-a-half-minutes, the track opens with pounding percussion, easing you into this sprawling emotional journey. With layers of ghostly guitar lines and a vocal warmth that could match Dave Le’Aupepe’s, the track soon erupts into a searing hymn of unashamed life and colour.
By the time of the track’s conclusion, all restraint has been thrown out the window; it’s an all-out, uninhibited celebration of youthfulness — with all its flawed moments of love and heartbreak.
This is the latest in a string of great releases from The Tints, and we can’t wait to hear what they deliver next. Here’s hoping we won’t have to wait long.
