A mixture of playful guitar twangs and effervescent synths charm across “nevermore,” a single from .Com, a band based in Corona, California. A warming bass presence, with a nostalgic post-punk charm, emanates alongside. Steady vocals become accompanied by glistening guitars, with the “I’ve been waiting for this moment my whole life,” escalation sending chills. Spacey synth arps captivate past the mid-point, showcasing the project’s knack for atmospheric synth-pop flair as well. “nevermore” is a thorough success.
