Ariel View

On their Epitaph debut Until My Lungs Are Cleared, Ariel View channel the most complex and messy emotions into eleven immaculately arranged indie-rock songs. Tapping into the kinetic energy they first revealed in playing backyard shows all around the Inland Empire, the Ontario, California-based band blends punk and surf-rock into a finespun sound that’s viscerally charged yet gracefully melodic. In their lyrics, Ariel View shares stories of drinking too much, missing the wrong people, and dreaming of running thousands of miles away. Sisters Harmonie and Heaven deliver each of their lines with both raw sensitivity and defiant self-assurance.
