Eugenia Post Meridiem has recently released their second single of 2022, "Around My Neck", and it continues the excitement from their previous single "Willpower". The start of the new song, which sets the tone for the rest of the single, features some aggressively fast-paced drumming, which ups the ante from the previous cut.
"Around My Neck" takes the listener on a ride of what Eugenia Post Meridiem is all about, and this showcases their sound for everyone to fall in love with, it's just so tactile.
The song's fast tempo and erratic guitar tones make us think of Foals and Wild Beasts, especially given how expansive it becomes at the 60-second mark. Darkness hangs over the song, which was previously a sun-kissed bop, but it doesn't last long since the anthemic synths eventually give way to a heavy bass before reverting to the sound in the song's opening minute.
