Comment: I got COVID about a month ago, and it left me with a lingering cough that has been really, really annoying. It has barely let me do anything other than rest due to the headache coughing so often gives me, but I had to come and write about the new single from one of my favorite post-rock/dream-rock acts: The 93. First of all, it had been two years since I last wrote about them (time flies!), and secondly, this track shows how the duo’s sound has evolved without losing the characteristics that define them.
“Sia” does not sound like anything the brothers Mazur have released before, but it still sounds like them. It has the enchanting instrumentation and atmospheric guitar lines we have come to expect from The 93, but with stronger, less ethereal vocals and some traces of a Phil Collins/Genesis influence. They started working on this song in 2018, but they hadn’t been able to finish it until this year. I’m glad they did.
The 93 are planning to release one more song this year, and I, for one, can’t wait to listen to it.

Enchanting indeed!
And I’m sorry to hear you’ve been suffering from Covid. While I’ve yet to catch that dreaded virus, I have had bouts of severe bronchitis in my life, and know how annoying and painful persistent coughs can be. Hope yours subsides soon.
Thanks, Jeff! Your kind words mean a lot. This was my second time with Covid but it was much worse than the first time. Hope you never catch it!
