Glyss – “Dissipating” + “Understanding”

/

Los Angeles-based project Glyss unveils a hazy, shoegaze entrancement across the debut album Eternal Return. Amongst the many standouts within, “Dissipating” and “Understanding” are two tracks that enjoyably embody that atmospheric, heady rock pursuits throughout the release.

The album’s third track, “Dissipating” quickly traverses from brief distortion into a moody, jangly intrigue. Subdued vocals enamor into the re-ignition of textured guitar distortion, aligning with a hypnotic vocal refrain upon its reveal. The track consumes in its steady sense of momentum, succeeding across both its dreamy introspection and sludgy shoegaze-forward invigoration.

“Understanding” is a stellar album finale. A dazed vocal elongation melds with guitar tones that echo a fuzzy warmness, conjuring an MBV-esque allure in the quaint vocal entrancement and distorted haze. Stream these two fantastic tracks and the rest of the gripping Eternal Return, below:

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