Jangling guitars and a yearning vocal entrancement take hold on “Boys,” a new single from resting, a band from Fayetteville, Arkansas. “Let’s stay awhile, and just dissolve for today,” a subdued presence builds into a burst of jangly guitars, with “miss you,” vocal sentiments captivating. A guitar-fronted charisma induces an atmospheric immersion in the final 30 seconds, reminding fondly of Wild Nothing. “Boys” is a grippingly melodic success from resting.
