MH-064 A Lull - Some Love  “Some Love,” the second single from A Lull's critically acclaimed debut Confetti, features the Ohio-based sonic experimenters at their most poignant and compelling. A Lull’s trademark percussive cacophony is a powerful backdrop for a song built around the the anthemic exclamation, “Show me some love.” The cascading “ahhs” that make up the song’s hooks are forcefully uplifting, and this overall feeling of positivity is affirmed by Anthony Ciannamea’s video. A remix from Mush Records’ Brothertiger re-imagines “Some Love” as if it were his own song, replacing the band’s onslaught of drums with a chillwave cool. San Francisco’s City Light provides a more minimal remix, augmenting the vocals with stuttering snares and sub bass flourishes. The final and most etherial remix comes from Sun Glitters, who employ warped tape effects and pitch shifts to create an enveloping landscape out of the song’s refrain. |

| Reviews Summary |
| Chicago experimental outfit A Lull is anything but a dull murmur in music. Employing afrobeat-inspired drums, fuzzed-out vocal pads and digital-age symphonics, A Lull create ever-changing scenery within the same song. The band's latest single, 'Some Love,' is a cacophony of genres, blended into an indie rock party anthem. - Spinner |

| Chicago experimental outfit A Lull is anything but a dull murmur in music. Employing afrobeat-inspired drums, fuzzed-out vocal pads and digital-age symphonics, A Lull create ever-changing scenery within the same song. The band's latest single, 'Some Love,' is a cacophony of genres, blended into an indie rock party anthem. "When we came up with the idea for the video we imagined a fun, feel good, summer-time party (even though it eventually ended up raining for the entirety of the video shoot), while we were driving through a snow storm in Wyoming," the band's Todd Miller tells Spinner. "I guess we were just trying to imagine where we would ideally want to be rather than deal with the reality of where we currently were." The video for 'Some Love' features the wily group on a car trip through the country side. We watch as the driver has an intense rear-view mirror connection with one of her passengers in the back seat. The group of friends lands upon a farm where they hurriedly take out cans of spray paint to graffiti a wall. Then, just as the song escalates toward psychedelic tribal rock, the band's party gets busy with extreme colors and a spiritual bonfire. - Spinner |
