We Are the City

"Baptism"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Apr 23, 2013

As previously reported, We Are the City's next set Violent is apparently full of "noise-soaked crescendos and delicate pop melodies," and newly leaked single "Baptism" definitely fits that bill.

The prog-influenced BC indie pop crew offer up a multi-faceted sonic journey on the five-minute track, starting up smoothly with new age synths and a skittery drum beat before running wild into stop-start passages and a senses-flooding back end of oozing organ, primal bass fuzz and mountain-moving drum clatter.

You can check out the stacked arrangement down below.

Violent hits retailers June 4 through Hidden Pony Records.
