The timeless-sounding “Looking on Down the Line” is a new track from The Flings, recalling acts like The Band and their ability to infuse mellow aesthetics, twangy guitars, and warm vocals into a memorable sound. The serene croon, guitar twangs, and key/organ additions play beautifully on this track, which the band describes as “a manifestation of past relationships and the maddening mania of welcoming new love.” This is a track that’s exceedingly easy to get lost in. I’m quite enjoying the project’s aesthetic, and look forward to their forthcoming releases.
