Canadian quartet Dizzy continue their upwards trajectory on new track "Joshua"
Dizzy are purveyors of the perfect dream-pop sound, employing delicate understatement to portray their tales of adolescent adventure to glorious effect.
Following on from the celebration of youthful exuberance that electrified previous single "Pretty Thing", Dizzy return with a song that explores the pain of a first heartbreak in minute detail, whether that be the friends who try and prop you up to the image of the mother who has to piece you back together again.
The opening line sets the tone as lead singer Katie Munshaw utters with almost brutal simplicity "Joshua was a gemini / He broke my heart". The song faultlessly tells the tale of how someone can mean the world to you and the emptiness that can follow when the relationship ends. The elegant guitar lines follow Munshaw's lead, supporting her broken heart with eloquent delicacy as she works through her emotions, slowly coming to terms with the love that is no more.
Munshaw explains how the song is a way of her dealing with her emotions and how it has a cathartic purpose, as she says it is "a goodbye to someone who left my life unexpectedly. There's a constant buzzing in your entire body after a relationship ends without closure. At first it chatters through to your teeth and bones, but eventually it dwindles down to a soft humming in a secret hiding spot in your heart. Coping. This song is ‘Goodbye, and thank you. I hope you're well. This is what's happened since you disappeared on me.'"
