We were drawn to the infectious pump of The End is the End, the new single from The Flints. This energetic psych pop bop grabs you by belt buckle and thrusts you to the dance floor. A nostalgic construct cites 60s pop in both melody and narrative, while modern influences add to the cinematic reference.
Stylistically we hear the modern influence of Spoon and Tame Impala. Like both The Flints are anthemic in nature and guaranteed to bring a concert audience to a frenzy. They’re also refreshingly raw despite the polished modern psych tonality. The new single is a lot of fun. Hold on, it hits you hard.
