Reminiscent of Smashing Pumpkins’ “Mayonaise” in its ascent from hazy, lush guitar swirls to blasts of warming distortion, “Specter of Circumstance” is a gripping track from Blonde Goth. Inspired as well by J Mascis’ guitar solos, the track is a standout success from the project of Nicky, who notes “the song came to me in a dream, as I was drifting in and out of other dimensions, worlds, and realities.” Whirring, textured guitars complement dynamic vocals, excelling across both dreamy initial retrospection and shouting ardor, as the conclusion hits. “Specter of Circumstance” is a thriller from Blonde Goth.
