The Clause Are In Their Element (Single Review)

Having been together since 2016, Brummie lads The Clause have released and mastered five single tracks, and are due to release their sixth on July 12th. 'In My Element' is a classic summer indie tune that would go off in any intimate venue.

"Flying high in the sunshine, I won't lie but 'm feeling fine. I'm coming up, I feel a rush of blood i'm in my element."

The track opens with a classic indie riff by Liam Deakin on lead guitar shortly followed by vocals from lead singer Pearce Macca, opening the intro with the above line. In comparison to what they have previously released, this track represents their growth as individuals, moving on from being 'Sixteen' to getting high and living life in the fast lane.

"So pop the collar and roll, and wait for it all to unfold, please excuse me if I sound bold but if you live slow you'll die old"- the opposite of 'live fast, die young' juxtaposing the two meanings.

There is no sugar coating this track, it is blatantly about consuming narcotics and the different highs, levels and euphoria it makes you feel, along with a false sense of confidence that the drugs give you, "So pop the collar and roll, and wait for it all to unfold" could either mean 'pop the pill' or quite literally pop the collar and roll, creating a confident image of someone flicking up their collar and running their fingers through their hair  as they get prepared to 'watch it unfold' - i.e. watch how the trip turns out.

"Lets put these recreational's to the test to see who comes up the best, we're on different waves but all feeling blessed."

There is also some deep backing vocals that play over the instrumental towards the last minute of the song which make a great addition to the track, ultimately producing a 90s groove "Always be in your element, ain't got time for your sentiment." He wants to be up at the forefront and doesn't want anybody dragging him down with their sentiment - living for the moment and living for the now.

Having watched The Clause develop since they began, they have gone on to do some incredible things such as having their new track 'In My Element' due to be aired on BBC Introducing, playing at The Isle of Wight Festival, being on the line up for Y Not Festival, selling out most of their hometown headline gigs, and they are also hitting streams in the six figures. Their dedicated fan base show them great support, and they are destined for great things.

The Clause are in their element.
