Kosmonauts – “Falling Apart” Single Review

“Falling Apart” blends hazy British indie with a hint of what the nitpicky among us would call ‘Pacific Northwest Emo’. Glassy, dissonant guitars, belting vocals and a smooth, grounding drive from the rhythm section make this track quite an eye opener. While instrumentally this track offers up some delicate haze and glossy indifference, the vocals are unmistakably Mancunian, which adds a certain grit to the song as a whole. “Falling Apart relates to the outsiders view on a failing relationship. Rather than being about the actual pain suffered it’s the anguish you feel for a couple that you can see are breaking down. A relationship that you also want to try to revive but the only option you see feasible is to part ways and start a fresh.” Say the band about the single.
