Conveying the state of being in love, “THIS FEELING” is a melodic rock success from Long Island-based artist Dan Cooney. Murky guitar twangs and anticipatory percussion ascend into a grungy sense of nostalgia.
“I see you in every season, you always leave me with a reason,” Cooney’s vocals let out as the guitars assume a warming reflection, shifting into what feels like a blend of radiant power-pop and comforting alt-rock nostalgia. An enjoyable range between pulsing distortion and jangly warmness shift seamlessly throughout, culminating in the memorable “every season,” central hook.
“THIS FEELING” marks a compelling showcase in hazy rock songwriting from Dan Cooney, who describes the release as “written from my experience of being really in love. I felt like I needed to get this out. Even if it was only that one person who it’s about heard it, it would be a weight off of my shoulders.” We’re excited to hear what’s next from this solo project, which Cooney formed after playing in numerous alternative rock band in previous years.
