Coyote Crunch – “Diagnosis”

/

French band Coyote Crunch unleash a stirring rock appeal on new single “Diagnosis,” which also plays as a heartfelt message to those struggling with mental and/or physical health challenges. A melodic, structurally escalating charm shows within, pairing with the project’s aspirations to help listeners “feel the validation or accompaniment you may not be receiving.” They add: “You are seen, you are heard, you are believed and you are not alone!”

“I don’t wanna be this way,” Guillaume Lhonoré’s vocals let out, exuding a sense of anguish within tumult though also a sense of perseverance — “I don’t wanna fall asleep,” — in the face of it all. Dreamy guitar jangles and steady percussion meld into an uptick in vocal passion, ruminating on time’s passage into conveyances of struggle; the bolstered guitar distortion invigorates here. The track thoroughly impresses in its build-up from quainter introspection into a fervent rock tour-de-force.

“Don’t tell me what I am,” the vocals enthrall past the mid-point, into an exhilarating dose of heavy guitars; it plays as one of numerous enveloping moments on this satiating track. “Diagnosis” is an impactful rock success from Coyote Crunch, who recorded the release in Paris.

This and other tracks featured this month can be streamed on the updating Obscure Sound’s ‘Emerging Singles’ Spotify playlist.
