Viscula “Dance Cannot Be Killed”
Psychedelic and garage rock joins in the punk rockers’ intoxicating quirky groove in “Dance Cannot Be Killed.” Viscula delivers another eclectic track, filled with electrified licks and retro dance rhythm. Mesmerizing and flickering. The track feels like a vivid hallucination where you see the nerves in your body tap their feet to the infectious, bouncy rhythm, holding their hands, stomping their feet.
Viscula is a band with vibrant personality. Their music is proud to be quirky. Their wicked, palpable sonic imagination always translate to the flamboyant, confrontational, illustration-like palette that is hard to forget. It’s refreshing to see a band with such vibrant sonic palette in combination with a kind of earthy, fantastic approach.
“Dance Cannot Be Killed” contains a nod to iconic show personalities like Michael and Johnny Depp. A change of pace in the middle of the song gives listeners a break, elevating them to a whole new level of fantasy. Up the cloud with atmospheric, almost romantic slow dancing session before the music sweeps you off your feet again. “Dance Cannot Be Killed” feels very piratic (maybe by association with Depp).
It’s a bit of a rule breaker, drunk, but fun-loving. The track also shares the similar craze of Jack and Rose’s dance scene in Titanic. It’s the kind of energy that makes you love life all over again. Earthy, intoxicating, and energetic. One aspect that can’t be ignored is the feeling of community that Viscula brings with their songs. “Dance Cannot Be Killed” in that sense is provocative, it challenges you to come join the dancing group, and through that experience, they bound everyone together.
