Inner Circle Club - “Bump In The Night”
“Bump In The Night,” by Inner Circle Club, is a solid psychedelic/classic rock track has a healthy 1970s feel to it. The song has a driving groove, with the drums and bass pulsing in unison. Splashes of shimmery guitar provide some atmosphere in the odd places, while the lead guitar plays addictively good riffs over the verse.
The vocal is slightly distorted, adding to the overall psychedelic feel of the song. The performance has a great vibe that carries the listener through each section. Over the chorus, the song develops a nice groove that is developed by stabbing guitar and keys. The breakdown is a standout moment, as the tempo changes and the fuzzy guitar starts to roar. This section almost feels like a jam session, with each instrument adding a texture but never showing off. The song then breaks into full pelt, with the energy building to a crescendo in the last chorus.
Lyrically, the song is about spooky things that go “Bump In The Night.” The words are simple yet effective, adding to the overall mood of the song. The combination of the driving groove, addictively catchy guitar riffs, and spooky lyrics makes “Bump In The Night” a good, old-fashioned indie rock pop song.
