Following on from this year’s Overthunk and last year’s bops etc., London-based Oscar Lang continues to forge his own path into the industry with the news of forthcoming EP Hand Over Your Head, dropping this September.
The 19-year-old trailblazer continues to find his space with the addictive new offering “Apple Juice”. Vocals that are steeped in vigour illustrate the frank lyricism that surrounds his charged new single. Sonically, it retains an unmistakably brit rock feel with unflinching instrumentation, while Lang smooths over the graininess of the guitars with woozy synths that hark back to ’60s psychedelia.
Lang’s artistic autonomy is apparent in “Apple Juice” as he and co-producer Rich Turvey (Blossoms, Cabbage, The Coral) craft the perfect lead single to hint to the new material that will feature on Hand Over Your Head. It signals a clear departure from the sunny sounds that featured on the likes of “Hey” featuring Alfie Templeman – the up-and-comer’s pop-stomper of last year.
