Smoke Spider’s “Electrical Show” is a wild ride of a song that is sure to electrify your senses and get your blood pumping. With its pounding drums, cymbal smacks, and infectious vocals, it’s impossible not to get caught up in the electrifying energy of this track.
From the moment the song begins, you are transported into a world of raw, unadulterated alternative rock. The driving chord progressions and electrifying guitar riffs with the synth glitching over are the perfect backdrops to the singer’s raspy high vocals, appending another layer of consciousness.
The lyrics are cryptic and mysterious, but they add to the overall psychedelic allure of the song. The repeated refrain of “That’s the spirit, oh hey hey yeah” is catchy and memorable, and the verses are filled with interesting imagery and metaphors. The line “I want to ask you to punch me/To punch me right/In my third eye” is particularly intriguing, and it’s open to interpretation of what it might mean.
The song’s bridge is a standout moment, with its eerie but ambient synth sounds and the haunting repetition of “Oh the masquerade, a high price to be paid, getting played.” It’s a moment of introspection amidst the frenetic energy of the rest of the befuddling electro-rock track, and it adds a layer of depth to the overall experience.
“Electrical Show” is a bold and exciting song that showcases Smoke Spider’s unique blend of rock, punk, art, electro, synth, indie, psychedelic and alternative influences. It’s a song that demands to be played loud and experienced in all its electrifying glory.
