The rock group Sunfrost, headquartered in Delhi and renowned for their thrilling live shows, is causing a stir with their first single, “Platonic.” The trio, which was founded by Anand and later joined by Abhigya on drums and Nishcay on bass, has been slaying the music scene in Delhi-NCR with its upbeat rock ‘n’ roll. They venture into the realm of original music with Platonic, a neo-psychedelic composition that skillfully combines nostalgic and contemporary elements.
Platonic’s storytelling is what makes it so beautiful. The song’s lyrics delve into the ambivalent sensations of a bond that endures between friendship and something more—where emotions are unsaid but unquestionable. The song explores the common experience of being attracted to someone but being hesitant to pursue a relationship. As the song’s lyrics imply, relationships can exist in a precarious equilibrium that makes one wonder if they should proceed or remain in the secure zone.
Nishcay’s rich, resonant basslines, Abhigya’s powerful drumming, and Anand’s sophisticated guitar work serve as the track’s main musical elements. The song is ideal for late-night journeys or reflective moments because of its clear production and engrossing, dreamy ambiance. The song has a sentimental quality that makes it seem like it would fit on the soundtrack of an independent coming-of-age movie.
Sunfrost demonstrates that they are more than just a formidable live band with Platonic. Their potential to establish a distinctive niche in India’s indie rock scene is demonstrated by their ability to transform unfiltered emotions into music. This first single is only the start of what seems to be an exciting musical journey.
Verdict: Dreamy, Nostalgic, Emotionally Stirring
