TRANSCENDENT, hypnotic, expansive, deeply original; Domiciles have been known to leave listeners mesmerised by their immersive compositions and exhilarating live shows since emerging in 2015. Heralded as one of Scotland’s most exciting propositions, the five-piece from Fife have rapidly accrued new followers with each impressive release so far.
Inspired by the psychedelic minds of the sixties and shoegaze bands of the eighties, the young outfit have managed to develop a sound that is entirely of their own devising in a remarkably short space of time; a notable achievement that has catapulted them to the forefront of Scotland’s music scene.
Continuing to push boundaries and expand minds with their thrilling brand of psych-pop, the band are ready to make their mark on 2017 with the release of their new single ‘100 Miles’; a track we’re delighted to premiere here on TTV.
Originally shared back in 2015, the new cut finds the band in particularly spell-binding form and comes armed with a more nuanced production. A warm glow of keys sets the foundations before swaggering guitar lines are woven together with driving hypnotic rhythms. Casting a spell on the listener with its deeply hazy and esoteric lead vocal, the track flits between strutting verses and swirling choruses before striding through a kaleidoscopic sequence of dizzying psychedelia.
The accompanying video is an appropriately head-spinning affair. Filmed and edited by band member Rory Cowieson, it features the five-piece performing the song in shadowy surroundings before closing with some lysergic cartoon imagery; the result being an immersive experience that fully transcends any retro comparisons.
As one of their biggest and boldest cuts to date, ‘100 Miles’ captures the sound of a band who have found their own creative lane and are blossoming in it. Released today via student label Little Tiger, you can check out the video below.
