A hazy rock appeal shows throughout “Wellington,” a track from Camelot that envelops in both its quainter wordless pulsations and distortion-friendly vigor — finding an enjoyable cross of psych-rock, dream-pop, and alternative. “On the run, searching for some sun,” the vocals let out, escalating seamlessly into shimmering bursts of guitar — and then into a chilly, minimalist vocal expression. “Wellington” consistently invigorates in its smooth blend of laid-back introspection and resonating rock pulsations.
Camelot elaborates on the track’s creative process:
“This song is about how I was on a completely different schedule than everyone else in my life. I was up all night and sleeping during the day while everyone else was still functioning. I was struggling feeling like a person and was a shell of who I was. My roommate also got a dog on a whim that would wake me up from barking early in the morning.”
