Rain smells like pollution when the humidity floods your psyche and all thoughts lead to longing. It’s nothing like that of bathing in wallow, but the distant gaze and color smearing break lights and blinkers: listening to music on the road is the only place to get your mind working and focused. But it’s about the destination. What are you focusing ON? Where in this music are you taking yourself? Sure, the road ahead looks like a pathway into darkness, but continue on until the light becomes pushy. Squint your eyes until they close. Pull over into the deserted ravine you call curb-side Enter your own personal Wildebeest. Place “Emphasis” on defeat. Don’t let this consume you. Let it become you.
If you want to enter the mouth of Wildebeest, head to their show December 10 in Melbourne, and start a battle with the audible. If you’re thinking about dwelling on the longevity of ‘em, pop on over to their Bandcamp below and nod. Or feel the pull in thier night ride video for “Emphasis.”
