Matt Law, emerging from Strathaven, Scotland, bursts onto the scene with his debut single "Days Like These".
... an energetic, nostalgia-fuelled indie debut that feels more like a breakthrough than a debut offering.
With this being his first offering, it sounds more like a return to form than a debut. It is infectiously upbeat within the first 10 seconds, with a cracking guitar tone and a frantic drum beat that will have you moving in appreciation.
Those punchy guitars, along with a catchy chorus, bring a sense of youthful nostalgia, reminiscent of late teens and early twenties. It even recalls early work by "The Strokes", blended with the more direct drum patterns often heard in modern indie pop.
Recorded at Riverside Music College with his band, it carries a raw and authentic sound. As a debut, it is the kind of release that could set him up strongly for the future. So get stuck into this new single by Matt Law as soon as you can, because "Days Like These" feels like the start of something special.
