Thief Motif - Disastrous Spells

Creatively fusing the distorted and the delicate, Seattle indie pop four-piece Thief Motif lead with a boldly unique alt-rock sound and style, and promise great songwriting and charming hooks along the way.

As an introduction to their impassioned and organic approach, Disastrous Spells is a chaotic and simultaneously calming alternative anthem, with dreamy riffs and hazy atmospheric distortion backing intimate to gritty natural vocals.

The song is quirky but evocative, it’s a story that feels as fresh as the sound, and with just enough catchy riffs, licks and melodic rises to gift that essential earworm quality – alongside a sense of rising anticipation that’s dynamic, impassioned, and mighty at its peak.

Creativity rings loudly with Thief Motif, a self-penned ‘dancey aggression’ that manifests as a structurally impressive, fascinating and captivating arrangement and performance. Definitely one to watch this season.
