BEST NEW TRACKS: RINGLET – HOLD MY PAINT

Ringlet is a shoegaze outfit from Oakland, California, featuring former members of Deafheavent. From the opening seconds, the track channels the spirit of My Bloody Valentine, though filtered through a slightly more accessible, contemporary production.

Hold My Paint runs just over three minutes and barely gives you a moment to breathe — in the best possible way. A memorable guitar riff drives the song forward, soon joined by hazy, dreamlike vocals. The chorus deserves special mention: irresistibly catchy and delivered with striking energy, yet never overpowering. Instead, it remains beautifully tucked within the dense walls of guitars – emotionally charged but subtly embedded in the mix. The result is mesmerizing!
