Back in July, I first heard Irish band NewDad, and their 2024 album Madra, which was really good. This album was shortlisted for the Choice Music Prize (which Fontaines D.C. rightly won).
In September, NewDad released Altar, which is, in my humble opinion, a step forward and a step up for the band. The song (also released as part of their EP Safe, at which time this visualizer was released) is both beautiful and hard-rocking - and not, as of this writing, released as a single. It's a song that builds harder and louder as it goes on.
You can hear the ramp-up during their KEXP performance of this song as well.
But what if you strip it down and take out the drums?
They did just that during this September performance in Liverpool. It just gives Julie Dawson's vocal more room to shine.
