GUILLERMO SEXO – “Fall Lens”

by

Guillermo Sexo- “Fall Lens” directed by Reuben Bettsak.

Here’s what we had to say about the band and this song when we wrote it up in a FRESH STREAM a while back

GUILLERMO SEXO roll up on Fall with a single from a new album. The album is called DARK SPRING, and the song we have here is called “Fall Lens.” On this outing GS fully inhabit a musical space that they have spent time around throughout their existence. Shoegaze, various indie rocks, psychedelia are all part of what this band is. There’s is a merger of these sounds though, no throwback, no re-creation. And Fall is the perfect season for this band to hand a record to you. GUILLERMO SEXO are a bittersweet rock band, not too gloomy, not overly filled with sunshine, but somewhere in the mid, where the occasionally lucky among us are. And to continue this theme behold “Fall Lens” from the soon to be released new album. It actually kind of sounds like some old GUIDED BY VOICES song with better fidelity. The song’s a grower, a pummeling current of shimmering yet also grimy drums and guitar chords. Male and female vocals together waft over this propulsion. A strong first song, that is only one of several approaches that the band takes on their new record.
