As we wait patiently for the Marcus Soderlund directed video of recent Korallreven single ‘As Young As Yesterday’ to drop, along comes this outstanding re-rub of said track… aptly renamed ‘The Final Fantasy’. To lift a lyric from last year’s single ‘The Truest Faith’, this reimagining is truly “the sound of endorphins”: as the track builds to a crescendo towards the halfway mark, Marcus Joon’s vocal floats against the backdrop of a rousing piano line – seemingly played by a gaggle of angels. It’s pretty much utopia in aural form. Stunning.
Korallreven play The Shacklewell Arms, London on December 12. Presented by Eat Your Own Ears and The Line Of Best Fit, the show is free entry and features support from Kins. For further details and to print off your free ticket, click here.
