Balancing lush vocals and hazy guitar textures within shoegaze and dream-pop reminiscences, �I Want To� is the latest single from Binding Spell. The Washington, D.C.-based project of Roger Poulin first caught our ears in July with the track �Euphoria,� and �I Want To� is a continuation of that success.
A wall of fuzzy guitars traverse into a moody bass line, emitting a nocturnal post-punk appeal. �Sunday morning hit,� the vocals let out, aptly aligning with the contemplative, easy-going guitar pulses. A bass-y pulse and ascending vocal chill drives into glistening guitar-laden beauty as the title-touting refrain hits � �I want to, I do.� �I Want To� is another strong, serene rock showing from Binding Spell.
Poulin elaborates on the track: �This is a personal one � about growing apart and losing touch with a friend who was formative in the development of my music taste (and the Binding Spell sound, especially on this track), and never reconnecting before they were gone for good.�
