Brisbane, Australia’s Layer Cake channel a bit of 1980s UK and New Zealand indie pop on “numb.” The bright guitar melody with winsome lead vocals that deliver a tale of heartbreak and heartache and how one can feel both too much and, yes, numb when the moment hits you and it feels amplified in your brain but your reaction becomes unpredictable and complicated when you’ve invested so much of your heart in someone and suddenly, or seemingly abruptly, it’s over whether one knew that was coming and it’s difficult to just let go. Fans of C86, Flying Nun, Sarah Records and Slumberland bands would do well to give Layer Cake try. Listen to “numb” on Spotify and follow Layer Cake at the links below.
