Australian surf coast rock act The Burbs are making waves with their new single ‘Ladder To The Moon’. Formed in 2016 amidst the vibrant Surf Coast/Geelong rock scene, The Burbs quickly gained a reputation. Known for their unique blend of pop melodies and dark lyrics, they effortlessly evoke a nostalgic vibe that resonates sonically and visually.
2024 has been a monumental year for The Burbs, marked by the release of their 12-track demo album, Sunlight Spills Across The Swimming Pool. Now, they are buzzing with excitement as they drop their new single, ‘Ladder To The Moon‘. This heartfelt soft rock ballad, with its metaphoric lyrics about loss, features stunning Pink Floyd-esque guitars and Beatles-like keys. #
The record kicks off with a vocal sample followed by an acoustic guitar progression that sets the stage. The first chorus hooks listeners with echoes of classic rock, Britpop, and folk. As the track progresses, a psychedelic indie rock vibe with touches of indie folk takes hold, leading into a musical interlude rich with vocal harmonies and sweet chords. The final chorus seamlessly transitions into an outro, creating an enticing conclusion that leaves listeners wanting more.
