One of the most exciting new bands we’ve come across this year is unquestionably Jesus On Heroine. Two months ago, they blew our minds with “Musasabi,” which was a monumental, psychedelic experience. It is also a candidate for song of the year, but the same argument could be made for their latest single. If you’ve bathed under a waterfall, you will know the exhilaration that overcomes you as the refreshing stream splashes on your head while the warm sun beams on your body. This same sensation is experienced on “Ardhanarishvara.” There isn’t a single element that stands out, but instead the psychedelic guitars, the dabbling of the ivory keys, the throbbing bass line, and the stuttering drums cascade together like a refreshing wave of sound. The harmonies are majestic, bursting like a congregation worshiping its gods. “Ardhanarishvara” is another tremendous tune from a band that we will start worshiping as of today. For what it’s worth, Ardhanarishvara is the androgynous form of the Hindu god Shiva and his consort, Parvati, so maybe we are chanting to a god. If you are interested, the video for the song is a must-see for its eye-popping animation. From: https://therevue.ca/2017/06/29/the-matinee-june-29th-2/
