Woman group UNIS had been certainly one of a handful of survival collection spawned teams who made their debut final 12 months. Their two title tracks had been strong however unspectacular. If you happen to had been to ask me to hum both of them at this time, I don’t assume I might do it. New single Swicy goals to lodge itself in your mind with its memorable title alone. I had no concept this was truly a phrase, however apparently it means ‘candy and spicy,’ which is a reasonably good description of this tune.

Opening with plonky percussion, Swicy quickly bursts right into a a strong instrumental supported by electrical guitar and twinkling keys. On this means, the association jogs my memory of currently-popular woman band QWER. Whereas this is likely to be a bit reductive, it’s a sensible transfer that distinguishes UNIS from most of their friends. The insistent rhythm looks like a sped-up oompah beat. I’m not an enormous fan of this sound throughout Swicy‘s extra skeletal moments, however it works very nicely when the guitar is available in to offer extra bombast.

It’s refreshing to listen to a bunch harness this type of vitality on a title observe. Swicy is much from one of the best instance of this type, however paints a means ahead for UNIS that might lead to superior music down the road. For now, it’s their strongest title observe but.
