Ecca Vandal is easily one of the most promising female artists to emerge from Australia throughout 2015. We’ve been a fan of her since her first release, and every track seems to peel back yet another layer of this innovative young artist.
An incredibly diverse artist blending electronic, pop and hip hop, End of Time is only her third single — and each one is remarkably different from the last. Father Hu$$la had a jarring feel that almost entered Die Antwoord territory, while White Flag bathed in a fuzzy punk intensity.
End of Time slows it down and pushes back the curtains, revealing a honeyed melody and a smoother flow. Coupled with glitchy rhythms and increasingly frantic synths, the track grows more powerful, and more intricate as it progresses.
I’m really intrigued by Ecca Vandal, and I’m looking forward to hearing more from the young artist.
