New Music Review - ‘Sick of Waiting’ by Violet Highway
Auckland based indie-rocker trio, Violet Highway are here to present their new release, Sick of Waiting which came out on Friday at midnight and serves up some real heat.
With gigs back on the table, you are bound to hear this upbeat track being performed at some point across the wavy shores of the city of sails. If you’re lucky enough to have top notch hearing, you might be able to listen out for the sound traveling all over New Zealand with the way that Violet Highway pull it out of the bag and make sure the volume is at the highest it will go.
Violet Highway have this carefully carried energy about the way they’ve curated their art, bringing forth what can only be described as a uniquely retro, almost an early 2000s Freaky Friday type of vibe, which I can get behind and thoroughly appreciate.
In Sick of Waiting, the focal point is certainly that puffed up, insanely well played electric guitar that glides through the track like silk, making a perfect edition in putting the spark through your veins.
Sick of Waiting is cheerful and works for the pumping up of an already hyped up room.
Sick of Waiting embraces many fun elements to it and the lyrics will have you up and thriving, shouting every single word into space.
What I enjoy about Violet Highway is that they have a female lead who has absolute immense vocals, which doesn’t seem as common in bands, especially in the NZ music industry. In saying this, all three members take their turn to be noticed in Sick of Waiting, giving the opportunity for every instrumental element to be inhaled by listeners, a balance that is unmatched and full of excellence.
Sick of Waiting will give you that much needed boost of dopamine, so take a chance to give this rocked up tune a listen, goes great while driving on the highway!
