“A Pickle” is a gripping new track from 26fix. The punchy bass line and twangy guitar expressions craft a melodic intro alongside playful key adornments. “I wanted something more,” the vocals let out during the chorus, touting a more carefree, spacious quality compared to the verses’ more anxious qualities — lyrically complemented in the ensuing verses by fears of global warming and tyrants. A lush pop procession embraces during the finale, the hazy synth qualities and bass line delicately bringing the captivating track to a close. “A Pickle” is a stellar songwriting showing from 26fix.
“A Pickle” is part of a concept album, releasing next year. “This song is from one of the character’s perspective in the story, and this character happens to be a pickle,” the artist explains.
