TRACK REVIEW: Specky Cult – Dad Dance

Specky Cult returns with Dad Dance, an infectious new single with sharp lyrics and a decisive bassline. Dad Dance is built around a slippery synth bass, syncopated drums and the occasional wiry guitar line.

Lines like “No shame in the sway, just knees that betray” and “Elastic waist, still moves with grace” give the song its character without giving into parody. Lyrically, Dad Dance is both funny and weirdly sincere: “Life is short. Dance like your drunk uncle at a wedding. Throw shapes, throw moves and throw your back out.” Dad dance is a timeless ode to carefree dancing.
