PACKS, the Toronto-based indie outfit led by Madeline Link, will release their debut album Take The Cake this Friday via Fire Talk Records.

We had previously shared album singles “New TV” and “Silvertongue” and the band had recently hit back with another single, “Two Hands.” Tapping into 90s grunge and lo-fi rock with a keen melodic sensibility that finds a fuzzy natured jangly rock sound that ticks all the boxes for fans of the genre.

About the track, Link added:

“This song is quite literal! On the walk home with muddy shoes and a light, almost delirious feeling in my chest that only stomping around in the mud can bring, I started humming the tune and the lyrics followed. A walk can transform your outlook on life, whether you are enraptured by a sunset full of colours only imagined in cartoons, you receive a sweet acknowledgement of existence from a stranger, or you get into a yelling match with a raving skeletor.”

Find “Two Hands” streaming below and look out for the album this Friday.
