Toronto dream pop/indie pop band Tallies have released the video for their new single "Special".
The song is taken from their forthcoming second full-length album 'Patina', which will be out on July 29th viaKanine Records (US), Hand Drawn Dracula (CA) and Bella Union (UK/EU). Pre-order your copy here.
Speaking about the band said: “‘Special’ is about longing to be seen and heard by those who matter to you most. Sometimes feeling invisible is particularly painful when the indifference comes from someone whose opinion means a lot to you.”
The juxtaposition of light and dark is a strong theme in the music of Tallies and certainly apparent once more with "Special" – another fine example of their gliding, shoegaze-adjacent jangle-pop reminiscent of The Sundays, Galaxie 500, Ride, etc. While many of their songs are upbeat, with Frankland’s breezy guitar lines drenched in reverb, soaring over Cian O'Neill’s propulsive drumbeats, Sarah’s lyrics can add a hint of shadow to even their most jangly tunes.
