Mellor is a four piece
band from Reading,
and this is their wonderful new single In The Water. It also comes along with a
video with a great concept, with the band playing in an empty shop window,
playing to the masses of nobody. Has the music mainstream forgotten about
guitar bands? In my opinion they have, what we had in pure talent is now
replaced with meat dresses and arse implants, and a woman who was a victim of
domestic abuse but still decided to collaborate with her attacker.
Featuring a jangly riff
and a sunny atmosphere, In The Water is a great track similar to something The
Kooks could have released on their debut album. It’s instantly accessible, and
contains one hell of an infectious guitar riff. It’s a happy go lucky song with
a fantastic guitar solo on the end too.
Mellor have created a
great radio hit for themselves, and also one that expands their sound further
too. I can see it getting lots of airplay, enough to possibly bring back the
golden age of indie bands to the mainstream once again.
