Audio: Dekades – The Drones Are Coming


dekades

Los Angeles rock band Dekades is streaming their new single “The Drones Are Coming,” off their self titled EP, due out May 26, 2015. Stream it below.

Dekades is a five-piece rock band from Los Angeles, CA. The band continues to make name for themselves in the local music scene playing raw and intense shows all over southern California and opening for notable acts like The Mowgli’s, Dead Sara, Beta Machine and Big Black Delta. The veteran rhythm section of Chris Cano on drums and James Carter on bass rely more upon groove than rote aggression, mimicking the dark undercurrents of a pulsating human heart. Guitarist Josh Benson provides a rich wall of sound upon which multi-instrumentalist Matt Shores applies the chromatic textures. All this beautiful white noise is summoned behind vocalist/guitarist Arden Fisher, a tour de force in her own right.

Fellow musician and friend Matt McJunkins (The Beta Machine, A Perfect Circle) calls the track “sludgy, dirty and sexy.”
