Brisbane's Palace 9 serve up dreamy indie/alt rock debut in new single, 'Paradise'

Digging deep in to the darkest corners of our mind, Brisbane’s Palace 9 bring up masterful melodies and stimulating narrative to breathe life in to inner fantasy world, which has given birth to their debut single, ‘Paradise’.

‘Paradise’ is awash with fuzzy guitars, and rounded bass, which in the verses are heavily compressed and tied to the drums, which gives a tidal effect, before releasing the valves and letting it all flow in the choruses. Palace 9 tread on either side of indie and alternative rock, taking a more indie-approach vocally, with the fully, darker alt/art rock vibes instrumentally.

High electric guitar notes arrive on a breeze of island air while the low, loyal bass moves as fluidly as sand, shifting with the movements of the song, yet always there as a grounding force. With each dominant chorus, the pursued paradise becomes a more tangible reality, acting as a guiding force to relish in the beauty of life.

In true PALACE 9 style, ‘Paradise’ comes from the depths of the mind, where creativity is able to flow freely and harmony is born between the self and the ever-challenging world we face

The band explains the track comes from a place, deep inside, on the edge of dreams and reality.

“Each of us can imagine these dreams or visions of beautiful places, our ideal world. But we must be inclined to use our vision of Paradise to guide us in our day-to-day lives which sees us at the mercy of the mind, constantly entangled by ego. With little control of the volatile world we find ourselves in, we have but two options; to hide in Paradise or to live our dreams as reality. What does your perfect world look like?”
