Plants is a spacey alternative rock band that formed in Arkansas. A strong love for music, and a devotion to making sounds they’d wanna hear. Striving for dynamic songs, unique structures, and moving melodies, Plants creates music that leads you further into the depths of sound.
On their debut single, “Reaching,” Plants turn a palpable longing into a slow-burning, psychedelic outing with warping melodies and expressive individuality. The young band has already found a unique sonic lane they can call their own, somewhere between modern indie rock, jazz influences, and subtle nods to shoegaze. “Reaching” undergoes several mood shifts throughout its three-minute runtime. What starts as a simplistic indie rock tune slowly transitions into a stadium-sized piece of rock fusion that never ceases to grow and amaze. The unpredictable arrangement emphasizes the acrobatic vocal performance beautifully as they navigate the open waters of Plants’s seemingly limitless creativity. Plants is only just getting started, but they are shaping up to be a freewheeling force in the burgeoning indie rock scene. “Reaching” is a stellar debut single from a youthful band with nothing but their lofty visions and honed musical prowess to carry them into the modern rock pantheon.
