Toronto-based Noah Mroueh, aka ARK IDENTITY, has just released the indie rock track, “Bleed Out In The Night”
“Bleed Out In The Night” is a track rich in texture, from the dreamy, warbling, and shimmering electric rhythm guitar tones that flow immersively through the song, to the punchy, tight and snappy drums that lock in a relaxed groove, and the vintage-toned bass that pulses with a classic, rubbery sound.
These layers intertwine together majestically, as if being transported through a Nick McCabe sonic landscape. At the climax, a fuzzy electric guitar begins to punctuate the groove, adding a pleasing, modern psychedelic slant to the composition.
Vocally, we are treated to a warm, sincere vocal performance that pleasingly conveys a sense of introspection through soft, airy tones. Delay is used elegantly to create a sense or ornamentation. Though the vocal is straightforward, the melodies are memorable.
Lyrically, Mroueh add that “This song is all about standing firm in your beliefs, even when everything around you is pushing you in the opposite direction. It’s about those moments when you have to say, ‘I won’t go that way,’ even if it means going through pain or conflict.”
“Bleed Out In The Night” is another superb offering from ARK IDENTITY’s upcoming debut EP, ANNDALE, slated for release November 8th. Be sure not to miss it.
