Les Imprimes – Falling Away (Big Crown US) 7″

The last single from Les Imprimes was an absolute bomb and this follows the same path. Melocholy, heavy beats with sweet melodies.

Les Imprimés present a formidable 7″ record, showcasing two standout tracks from their upcoming album in a timeless Plug & Ballad combination.

The opening track, “Falling Away,” on the A side, begins with a powerful drum break, skillfully layered by Martens with enchanting piano melodies, sitar accents, and captivating guitar riffs. The lyrics, in contrast to the track’s tone, create a bittersweet experience as Martens sings about the dissolution of love, expressing, “One day at a time, girl, you waste my life.”

On the B side, “Still Here,” Martens demonstrates his resilience amidst life’s unpredictable twists and turns, set against a thunderous backdrop that redefines the traditional ballad genre. Skillfully fusing his poetic prowess with a masterful use of space, Martens delivers yet another unforgettable tune from Les Imprimés—an offering that effortlessly captivates but defies easy categorisation.
