'Partisan' is the debut single from Wimbledon-based indie five-piece yawwn. The band have worked with producer and fellow Wimbledon native Lou E to craft a sound that blends psych-rock with indie-pop to great effect.
The track opens with a lovely drum groove that is brought to life by arpeggiated synth loops and a psychedelic influenced sample that sounds as if its been pulled straight off an American TV show in the 60s. The instrumentation is adventurous and daring with little moments of experimentation throughout the verses. In the chorus, the simple vocal hook contrasts well with the busy and exciting rhythm section. The chorus is very strong. The simplicity of the lyrics ('I have a feeling that I'll need you always') coupled with the catchiest of vocal melodies will have live audiences singing in droves in no time. The final stages of the track are a joy. The drum groove simplifies and the brilliant vocals and chord progressions amount to a triumphant pop influenced climax.
For a debut single yawwn have pulled off something really impressive here. The track is catchy, fun, experimental and overall the band show great musical talent. The tune launches on the 13th of January at the first of their 'CLUB YAWWN' nights in Wimbledon before the release of their debut EP later on in the year. It's exciting times for yawwn and 'Partisan' has definitely peaked our interest.
