“Wild Birds” soars through Mnevis‘s signature sonic territories with the confidence of a band that knows exactly when to spread its wings and when to dive.
Against a backdrop of meticulously layered instrumentation, the Swiss quartet crafts a composition where indie rock conventions dissolve into something more adventurous, each note placed with surgical precision yet feeling entirely organic.
The track exemplifies the band’s gift for balancing contradictions – experimental flourishes merge seamlessly with accessible melodies, while propulsive rhythms anchor the more atmospheric elements. It’s a lesson in tension and release, where Hänni’s distinctive vocals float above the carefully constructed chaos like a bird riding thermal currents, proving that even in their third album, Mnevis continues to find new heights to explore.
