In our interview with Ade Paloh, he mentioned that Marsh Kids is planning to release their debut full length this summer (titled the Many Failings of Bugsy Moonblood), and last weekend they just released the first single. Titled "Inclination", the music seemed to have been penned by Ade as his vocals takes lead of the song. The lyrics of confusion and soul-searching is complemented very well by the instrumentation, particularly the synths and lead guitar. The synth envelopes the song and is occasionally percussive, adding an extra layer of rhythm, while the lead guitar does a great job being a transition between parts. After listening to this single, we are really looking forward to hearing what Marsh Kids has in store for us.
