Luna Marble are back with a stellar new single 'The Ride', their third single ahead of their debut album. This track, showcasing the band's signature infectious grooves, offers a different flavour than their previous releases, capitalising perfectly on a fun and dance-heavy atmosphere.
'The Ride' is a whirlwind of funky fun, clocking in at just over two minutes. It kicks off with a bass-led intro reminiscent of Poison's 'Unskinny Bop', before Dragos' distinctive guitar riff and Maria's impressive vocals take centre stage. The addition of keys adds depth to the sound, creating a multi-layered and engaging listening experience.
Lyrically, 'The Ride' delves into the philosophical, exploring the 'fluid and ever changing nature of life'. The band describes life as a ride that is 'always changing, always new, scary but beautiful'. Yet, the track's dance-infused atmosphere contrasts with the lyrical depth, offering a joyful and upbeat sonic experience.
A memorable interlude features Maria scatting alongside Dragos' guitar work, her voice acting as an additional instrument. The track culminates in a soaring climax, leaving the listener wanting more.
'The Ride', a fan favourite in Luna Marble's live shows, has been successfully captured on record, retaining its energy and spirit. This track epitomises the band's ethos: taking their craft seriously while still having fun. Accomplished but never over-indulgent, Luna Marble demonstrates their musical prowess while maintaining a sense of playful exuberance.
As we eagerly await their debut album, 'The Ride' serves as a reminder of Luna Marble's immense potential. With their infectious energy, musical talent, and philosophical depth, this band is undoubtedly one to watch.
