SINGLE REVIEW: Burn Kit - Becoming the Wind

Burn Kit’s latest single, 'Becoming the Wind', is an exhilarating blend of vintage charm and modern flair. From the very first note, the duelling guitars command attention with their retro, jangly indie sound, evoking a sense of nostalgia that’s wonderfully reminiscent of the C86 era. The shimmering and chiming tones create a vibrant, uptempo atmosphere, setting the stage for what’s to come.

The driving bass lines and punchy drums form a tight, rhythmic backbone that propels the track forward. The song’s dynamic nature is further enhanced by rowdy, multifaceted vocals that carry a touch of punk-ish rebellion, mixed with a sprinkle of glamour and sparkle. There's a raw energy to the performance that feels both artistic and invigorating.

What truly stands out is how 'Becoming the Wind' manages to feel both vintage and delightfully modern. It captures the essence of the past while infusing it with a fresh, contemporary twist. Burn Kit has delivered a track that’s not only a nod to their influences but also a vibrant statement of their own artistic identity.
