19 June 2015, 11:00 | Written by Jessica Goodman

Cannock quintet Gleam are stoking a fire of intensity with new track "Fake", premiering today on Best Fit.

Taking notes from classic shoegaze inspirations, Gleam have crafted a track of swirling guitar pop at its boldest. Vocals resound at the forefront of deeply resonant guitars and spirited rhythms, whilst the blazing guitar solo that draws the track to it's close is as electrifyingly hair-raising as they come.

Framing nostalgic esthetics in a whole new light, Gleam forge an essential sound that's practically tangible.

Gleam play The Cookie in Leicester tonight (19 June) in celebration of the venue's 10th birthday. Event details can be found here.

Listen to "Fake" below, and watch the track's accompanying hypnotic visuals beneath.
