Swedish trio Echo Ladies are slated to release their sophomore album Lillies on September 8th, having inked deals with Rama Lama Records / Gazehop Records. The upcoming record follows their 2018 debut LP Pink Noise.
With the song launching with a muted drum kick, the track morphs into a blossoming dreampop gem. Soaking reverb guitar lines are aided with a thundering bass line, all topped with sweet and infectious melodies. This is definitely a great intro into the new album.
Touching on the track, Echo Ladies stated:
“‘Awake’ is a song about the feeling of drifting apart from each other in a relationship. The feeling of being left behind and forgotten and how small of a person that makes you feel, hoping it’s all a bad dream and wishing to wake up again.”
