Kansas-based noise rock band Abandoncy have steadily honed a sound that blends technical prowess with raw, avant-garde intensity. With their latest track, Night Drive, featuring Eugene S. Robinson (formerly of Oxbow), the band takes their signature style to new heights. Not afraid to embrace unpredictability and anxiety, the song is an effective, boundary-pushing experience.
Night Drive, which appears on their forthcoming full-length album Assailable Agonism, set for release on September 20th, 2024, through The Ghost Is Clear Records, Learning Curve Records, and Vina Records, is a beautifully intricate piece. The track combines noisiness with a sense of emotional weight, bringing forward an evocative contrast between assaulting soundscapes and introspective themes.
Abandoncy delivers a powerful performance that explores inner thoughts, blending heavy sounds with a sentimental undercurrent. The song feels simultaneously cathartic and confrontational, reflecting the band's ongoing exploration of unconventional music.
