New Boys Age: “The Highest Moon”
There was a time when Saitama-based outfit Boys Age released songs on a weekly basis, and dropped albums just as quickly. Over the last year, the project has slowed down and taken its time putting out new material, and it has managed to make the songs that do appear all the more urgent. Which is a weird word to come to the front of my mind for “The Highest Moon,” a wisp of a song that features head-tilted-downward vocal delivery set over splashes of guitar. The whole number feel wrapped in a layer of smoke, unfolding slowly but pulling you in with every guitar line. Get it here, or listen below.
