Jellyskin - She Sung Oceans

She Sung Oceans 

Greeted once more with the presence of Leeds based band, Jellyskin, our ears are met with their newest creation She Sung Oceans. Having only started as a band in the spring of this year, this steadfast trio have already released their first track Grey Glass Hat and have teamed up with fellow fresher band, Sealand, to create record label Sea of Skin. Hacking through a starter band's checklist, Jellyskin are hastily commandeering a market which seemingly demands for a sound that's as if Kate Bush had joined Sonic Youth. And given that the band's mantra is not to sound like someone else, it comes as no a surprise that their desire to 'have a distinctive sound  that people will attribute to us' (says lead singer Zia) is accomplished.

Following on from their debut track, Jellyskin have managed to continue the melancholic transcendence that started with a visit from a mysterious man in a grey glass hat in their first track now to a girl who apparently sings oceans in their second. In its efforts to upkeep the reputation from their first song, She Sung Oceans seems to dip its toes into the seas of grunge, dream pop, and psychedelia, flooding your ears with ambient vocals, metronomic drums, and trance inducing guitars.With a climatic middle and a synthesised conclusion, each genre that the track moves through rolls over you like a wave.

With images of that Simpson's scene where a bunch of teens bob to Smashing Pumpkins, and the track's sonic waves crashing around you, She Sung Oceans truly is a transient hipster daydream.

Currently toying about with ideas of organising their own gig in Leeds, says guitarist Will, and with more songs in the pipeline, we can look forward to future for Jellyskin, because it's bound to be as big as Alison Goldfrapp's hair.
