Genre-defying three-piece, Polyenso have announced their upcoming Year Of The Dog EP, due out January 18th from Other People Records. Today, the band has also released the EP’s first single, “Neon Mirror“. The track is a brooding ode to the highs and lows of ever-present technology, asking if constant connectivity has more of a cost than we think.
Polyenso‘s sound is ever-evolving and Year Of The Dog is no exception. The EP’s four new tracks walk a fine line between boundless experimentation and unabashedly poppy hooks, incorporating a blend of organic instrumentation, glitchy electronics, hip-hop rhythms, lush synths, and Brennan Taulbee’s dynamic vocals. Much of Year Of The Dogfinds Polyenso looking outwards, trying to make sense of the imbalanced feeling that permeates our social and political climates. From social media, to the fallout of the 2016 election, to personal uncertainties, Year Of The Dog takes a realistic look at the challenging year that was 2018 without losing hope for the future.
Year Of The Dog track list:
1. Neon Mirror
