Listen: You'll Never Get To Heaven - "Adorn"
Ever had a fantasy of floating out into the Atlantic – all the way into the Atlantic where, come nightfall, it’s just you and the unobstructed canopy of stars above, the infinite black expanse of sea and sky surrounding you?
Obviously, it’s an awesome vision, one rendered impractical in reality, but we can just about get there in spirit to the tune of Canadian dream-pop duo You’ll Never Get To Heaven’s “Adorn”. Set to a metronomic drum machine beat, the two smoulder and simmer an aromatic broth of fluttering, translucent guitar and electronics, Alice Hansen’s vocals completely engulfed in the concoction.
Don’t let my imagery and the delectable sonic description fool you; there’s a foreboding undertow here – just as the serenity of floating in the ocean carries with it the constant spectre of danger. Light static crackles around the periphery and Hansen’s doling out of allusions of aloneness in her sweet but unaffected tone serve to keep the song’s balance captivatingly askew.
You’ll Never Get To Heaven’s latest EP of the same name, Adorn, is available digitally now at the band’s Bandcamp courtesy of Mystic Roses Records, The EP has just been released as limited edition vinyl via Psychic Handshake Recordings.
