The Vex Share Their Latest Single ‘Living In The’

With a punk/garage boldness coupled with the up-bounce rock steady guitar riffs, London band The Vex have managed to capture a distinct period of 80s culture blending with their new track ‘Living In The’. Whilst their 2016 EP ‘Heavy Rocksteady’ was heavily steeped in Jamaican reggae textures, ‘Living In The’ adds a funk swing to the production, peppering their already gumbo mixture of goodness with even more spice. The song is taken from The Vex’s self-titled EP, forthcoming on the 21st of April via Lost In The Manner.

Touching on the track, Jacko of The Vex wrote:

“Inspired by the wonderful words of English philosopher Alan Watts, who has become a huge influence of mine, ‘Living In The’ is about existing in an eternal NOW. It’s all there ever has been and all there ever will be. With today’s mobile phone culture, it sadly seems more important to photograph or record an event than to be totally present and take it all in. As the song’s title suggests, we play and feel the NOW.”
