An urgent rhythm gets “Feels Better in the Morning” by Bled Tape off to headlong pace from the very beginning. The contrast between that rhythm and the sparkling, expansive, distorted guitar and ethereal melodies makes the song sound a bit like a Krautrock song. Think something like Neu! with dream pop instincts. The constant up-sweep dynamic makes the song feel like it’s constantly ramping up before it plateaus off into space only to catch that rapidly ascending tonal breeze again all while the song surges forward. The effect is one of both irresistible motion and introspection. Those two modes should be at odds yet Bled Tape reconciles the divergent impulses on this song.
