Rapt - "Only Water"
Rapt is a post-folk project from the UK that swims in similar aural waters to Scott Tuma, Benoit Pioulard, Peter Broderick and Lake Mary on “Only Water”. A vocal driven track, ”Only Water” is built on a minimalist guitar line, a distant piano and heavily melodic vocals that come from the deepest pools of emotion. According to Rapt, the song is, “a reflection on climate change, posterity, love and the ruthless grind that is fate and the hours we face.” An apt description for a track that feels vital but a bit wearied and worn by late-era capitalism.
