Find out what La Need Machine has to say about the importance of giving in their new track, ‘The Mountain’.
‘The Mountain’ somehow carves out an exciting drive forward even with a tempo that isn’t too fast, and its string ensemble pairs well with the folk and rock influences. Additionally, the vocals have a nice nasal tone that brings in a bright buzzy sound, the vocal harmonies are beautiful, and the guitar solo shows a lot of prowess. When it comes to lyrics, it’s a track of giving. It’s not about money, but providing what you can whether that be your time or talents. What the band wants to tell through this track is that it’s better to give than receive. “It’s not what you take, it’s what you give,” the outro leaves the listener with.
Seattle-based band La Need Machine is known for their ability to blend genre. Their discography takes influence from punk, rock, Americana, indie, and country among other genres. Their goal is to inspire and support their community, and they even donate revenue from their streams to non-profit groups. They’re more than a band, they’re supporters and lovers of others. ‘The Mountain’ captures this well. Let’s see what they can provide inside and outside their musical range in the future!
