A moody rocker with infectious appeal, “The Last Decay” is a new track from Primordial Spasm, the Canadian project that impressed earlier this year with “Wash Away / Memories of Memories.” “We all die someday, taking a ride along the way,” the vocals ring out during the consuming rise, with glistening guitar twangs and hypnotic organs embracing. The title-referencing bridge is a deeply atmospheric psych-forward delicacy, the ensuing “my sense of self is falling down,” refrain captivating with equally hypnotic results. The brass-laden verses that close out the track do so with an eloquent grip, concluding the excellent “The Last Decay” with a satisfying touch.
