The Best Indie Songs of 2015 - We Are Z

We Are Z Airbrush (Nov’14) starts all throbby bass and drums then builds to all in for the chorus. It’s plenty dance in the bridge with synth doodles and falsetto vocals. But this beauty ain’t short on a bit of punk rock neither with the shout together chorus and guitars joining the fray.

 

A tasty little musical mixture to accompany a track that takes a solid crack at cosmetic surgery and people’s need for visual perfection. Worthy themes good sir. A top class potpourri that makes Airbrush one of the best indie songs of 2015.

“We get the picture you'll be zero thin,
white out the teeth, cut the bingo wings”

 

 

 

 

We Are Z are indie pop rockers from London and Paris. They have been preaching in the streets since 2013 and Airbrush is their second single.

Shit you need to know:

We Are Z  are influenced by 80’s new wave like XTC and Devo. But Vampire Weekend and Metronomy will also do the trick.

We Are Z have been described as reminiscent of Foster the People, a Foals gone mad and anthemic Arcade Fire.

We Are Z’s dream collaboration would be with The Clash. Mine too gents.

If you want some more of Z try Knucklehead.

 

Sitting in reserve with the big guns goes to this Australian indie rock punchfucker by Apes.

Pull The Trigger (July’14) is a real indie rock stomper. A ‘teeth on the gutter, boot to the back of the head, turn the body around pop out and eye and give it a skull fucking cracking’ track. Pretty good I reckon.
