Teesside outfit Weathership are back with a new track entitled ‘Broken Bell’, adding to their already impressive catalogue of music. The band have been on a strong run of shows and releases, and this latest offering feels like another confident step in what is becoming a defining period for them.
After listening to this new track, it’s clear that this band has a keen ear for layers and detail. Equal parts rhythmic and cinematic, ‘Broken Bell’ not only draws the listener in but also tells a story. Fans of music with depth and meaning will find plenty to appreciate here. The track reflects on that end-of-the-tether feeling, where a final reserve of strength somehow emerges.
This is not to say the song lacks energy. It remains highly listenable, with a steady groove that invites movement – I found myself nodding along with each play. The middle eight is a particular highlight, with lead singer Jim Riggall retaining his distinctive, slightly smoggy accent, adding authenticity and character.
So what makes ‘Broken Bell’ stand out? It’s its balance of atmosphere, storytelling, and rhythm, creating a track that feels both thoughtful and engaging.
You can listen to ‘Broken Bell’ now on all major streaming platforms.
