New Music Review - ‘ALL FOR YOU’ by Gibson XCVII
ALL FOR YOU is a warm piece of summer handed to you by the legends from Gibson XCVIII. The tune was released on the 2nd December 2022 and really is something else. Cover art: provided by Gibson XCVIII.
Coming in warm with a fresh splash in the ocean to perk your days up are Christchurch locals, Gibson XCVIII with their tranquil-filled, charming track, ALL FOR YOU.
The tune has been on rotation for just over a week now after initially making its debut on the airwaves of local radio stations and boy, is it a great presentation of a fascinating storyline that holds anticipation that you can delve right into.
With strategically placed gripping beats, ALL FOR YOU promises this well thought out energy that encapsulates what Gibson XCVIII are consistently striving for and perfectly achieving.
Dean and Mark have this tendency to introduce their music to the world with intricate feeling, which is mixed with a lot of meaning, leaving you asking for the next step in their musical careers to be unleashed.
Gibson XCVIII are not a band who have just tossed some old beats together and called it a day. In fact, ALL FOR YOU has been with Dean for quite some time - something I was able to discuss with the band on the podcast, which you can find here.
It’s evident that the creative passions that Gibson XCVIII have poured into ALL FOR YOU (and their other tracks) are something they take seriously, allowing both members of the band to bounce ideas off each other, which, in turn, lets both Dean and Mark have their own spin on the songs they choose to release. A perfect amount of team effort.
ALL FOR YOU is a more mellowed-out indie vibe and while it may not be a full-on dance-type tune, you will still find your body moving and grooving in all of the right ways, even involuntarily.
Gibson XCVIII have proven that this song is a great expression of their music currently with their tracks ever-changing to make way for new sounds, ideas and words. ALL FOR YOU is as humble and kind as the two members of the band - super delightful.
ALL FOR YOU is a tune that you will want to get wrapped up in, so pop it on repeat for the weekend and enjoy the cosy, light-listening moments that if offers.
