No matter how much you try to avoid listening to or getting their melodies stuck in your skull, holiday music is bursting this year, just as it ever has and will. So it’s super refreshing when trippers like Sewing Machines drops two tracks that help this communal spirit subside without any psychological damage. Starting out with “New Years Resolution,” the preemptive reminder that it’s time to start thinking of a game plan, Sewing Machines uses the impending 2016 (as we all do) to case a spell of goodness in terms of their own damn terms. Although this “New Years Resolution” is “For you,” there’s an implication here that suggests we all need a little bit of leeway when considering the measures it takes to completely rework one’s life; that long drawn bow on strings, twinkling synthetics, insatiable beat that builds, a banjo: I’m surprised at what Sewing Machines is planning on improving come 2016, because it seems like they’ve already got a good lock on their music. But just before they go — to revert, but with mucho serenity — “December 23” is that haunted day Sewing Machines reminds us to never forget [an event] that occurred that day, so piecing it together, while matching listener-pace to the steady progression of the track, is entirely up to the listener, but it’s really just right there for the feeling. Listen below and relieve the seasonal music that’s following you closer than a shadow at noon by digging on Sewing Machines’ “New Years Resolution” and “December 23rd” below:
