DON’T SAY A WORD.

Each new Cathedrals single appears on the scene as distinctive as a pane of stained glass – intricate, intrinsically coherent, simultaneously translucent and deep – and now we’ve got the fifth and final piece of gorgeous geometry to complete the crown of their debut EP. Living up to its name, “In The Dark” has our favorite West Coast duo playing James Bond with the lights out: a sinister guitar sings out sky high and electric against the pedal-to-the-metal slink of the backbeat, as the bass steamrolls forward like it’s on a secret mission and vocalist Brodie Jenkins hits the perfect sweet spot between secret agent “Toxic” pop and Phantogram‘s recent output.

Like everything we’ve ever heard from Cathedrals, it’s as sui generis as it is reminiscent of all that you’ve been missing, and luckily the wait’s almost over for our September 8th release of the band’s eponymous EP (preorder the deep purple 10″ vinyl HERE). But if those preorders can’t keep you sated, you’re in luck: the full EP is streaming on Spotify a week early now with a stunning acoustic version of “Want My Love” sweetening the deal even further. Lose yourself “In The Dark” below, and stream the EP in its entirety HERE.
