'Falling' is the alluring new single from the UK based, heavy alternative quartet, Spectral. Their enchanting sound is comprised of catchy hooks drawn from the realms of pop and alt rock, enticing electronics, and fierce guitars, all fueled with emotion from Clark Kelly's powerful vocals.
Working with JJ Catalyst (Mothica, Hollywood Undead, The Rose, Kelsy Karter & The Heroines) and Ruairi O’Flaherty (Lana Del Rey, Paramore, Kendrick Lamar, Pale Waves), Spectral conjure a thrilling combination of riffs and pop sensibilities. The band are preparing to unveil their debut EP, 12:12 on the 12th of September 2025.
The band comments on 'Falling':
“'Falling' descended out of nowhere. The dark sonic soundscape was lush, atmospheric and cinematic, and it pulled me into its grasp. You know the melody connects with you when you spill your heart out on paper immediately. Making me drown in deeply personal thoughts. 'Falling' evokes the magnetic pull of that deep emotional connection.” - Clark Kelly
“This was the first piece of music I’d written for several years, so it’s what I can only describe as an outpouring of pent-up musical creativity and emotion. It came from a place of re-discovery, not just for the love of the music I listen to, but also the love of writing it.” - Matt Blore
