The Neon Sea ‘As I Wonder’ – out now!

Dublin’s The Neon Sea has entered the scene with a debut single that feels like stumbling into a fog-drenched cathedral at sunrise—confusing, overwhelming, and utterly magnificent. ‘As I Wonder’ is a slow-burning sparkler, shimmering with lush layers and introspective lyrics that tug at the edges of your subconscious.

The track kicks off with delicate guitar jangles before launching into a crescendo that somehow feels both gentle and ferocious. It’s like The Stone Roses decided to have a jam session with Pink Floyd on a rainy Dublin night. Tom Doyle’s vocals are introspective yet commanding, perfectly embodying the band’s blend of shoegaze serenity and post-punk grit.

And can we talk about the artwork? The delightful scribbles from Doyle’s five-year-old son add an unexpected charm, making this release not just a song but a deeply personal statement. If ‘As I Wonder’ is just the beginning, The Neon Sea is destined to make serious waves.
