One More Weekend is a Melbourne band. Connor Dougan sings, Leith Dougan plays bass, Tim Aslett is on guitar and Jayson Riley is on drums. They are very noisy and active in their song Aunty Meredith. I didn't really anticipate that it was going to hook me, but it does, pretty much immediately.
It has a deep bass note. Not clean and not neat, but that's what it is. It's a bit moody, a bit light, a bit dark a little bit of both. Connor's voice is raw, perhaps a little rough around the edges, but that adds weight to it. When it feels uncomfortable, it sounds like he means it.
There is a lot of movement in the guitar. Occasionally it seems to be broad and spacious, and then it becomes sharp, even stinging. The bass is the one that makes the show real, solid and on the go. Drums are strong and push, pushing. It thickens into full sound, quite and the melody still comes through.
I'm still a little stuck in the video. A guy finds himself at a peculiar event. When he drinks, things change. He feels isolated, as if people around him are empty. He seems hesitant, but continues to proceed. Later there is a forest, it's a ritual, and he's not going to leave that forest. There is a feeling that they are familiar with this sound. It is not forced and feels lived in. A bit coarse but in a good way.
