OVERNIGHT PARKING INTRODUCES THEMSELVES IN GRITTY “MERCY MIGHT MARTYR ME”
Overnight Parking’s breakout single “Mercy Might Martyr Me” might just put them on the map.
From the relentless, contagious emotion displayed from start to finish to the insane musical chemistry shared among the members, this emo/post-hardcore track is as timeless as it is good.
With a riff that’s mesmerizing and hooky, you’ll stay on track the whole listen. Throughout the song, vocals are not prominent but are used as an instrument that complements the rest of the band. They work effortlessly to convey that distorted, homey feeling you get when at a DIY show. At times, the mood changes from hard and brash to absolutely beautiful.
Noise, noise, and more noise – Overnight Parking really knows how to sell it. With breakdowns that are so haunting, they feel like it's whispering out into your soul. The guitar echoes like wind screaming through a herd of trees. The drums are unforgiving, knocking you down into your seat in full whiplash style.
Their passion cannot be faked; you can feel the authenticity oozing through your headphones. They effortlessly transport you into their mood, a strength that is extremely impressive for a band just starting off. If Overnight Parking’s first song is this strong, we can’t wait to see what’s next.
