PYLON HEIGHTS “VHS”

Music Review: Pylon Heights "VHS"

Pylon Heights Unleash Poised New Single “VHS” Highlight The Lows and Highs of a Breakup.

From its very first sound, “VHS” is meant to be an unusual track. Pylon Heights sonically narrate around the highs and lows of a breakup with intimate, unfiltered one-take guitar and unapologetic vocals that read like a diary.

The low point of a breakup is brought to you by a timeless guitar motive on repeat in the background. It has a childlike wonder in the sound as well as a speck of boredom and sorrow. Simple yet straight to the point. The vocal has a raw aesthetic all around its delivery that makes “VHS” is highly relatable.

The chorus is a storm of high waves: mesmerizing, massive, and cathartic, like an intensified blossom of sounds with dazzling, reverberant soundscapes and punchy guitar lines. It drastically unfolds right in front of your ears yet it lingers before it’s gone.

“VHS” is like a short film that unravels in your ears with the very unique Pylon Hights’ aesthetic. It’s personal and intimate, but emotional and dramatic, poetic in its structure. It takes you on a contrasting journey.
