Astro-Lloyd / "Antlers"

 New single from Astro-Lloyd, "Antlers"

The Skinny Review:
This song is really energetic and catchy. It manages to mix a few different genres while staying loyal to the band's alternative style.

In Their Own Words:
“The first version (music only) of Antlers was written in late 2018 by our old bass player. When he quit the band in 2019 he wanted to keep the music so we just wrote a new song around the lyrics and melodies. This was a first for us as we usually write the music first, then comes up with the lyrics and melodies. But it was a great experience and almost exactly what the song is about. We’ve had a habit in the past of making things a lot harder than it has be, when in reality there’s almost always a simple solution. As we say at the beginning of the song and then the chorus ‘The solution, so simple’.

Inspiration for the song came from the “old” lyrics, just wanting to be better and not make it more difficult than it has to be. We sat in our rehearsal space, trying to feel the song just from the vocals and came up with the main guitar riff from that.

The recording process was pretty simple. We had a friend of the band help us with the drums then we did the rest ourselves as usual. It’s great to do it by ourselves, we can take our time, try everything we want to without stress.”
