,: On their Epitaph debut Until My Lungs Are Cleared, Ariel View :,
: channel the most complex and messy emotions into 11 immaculately :
:' arranged indie-rock songs. Tapping into the kinetic energy they ':
,: first revealed in playing backyard shows all around the Inland :,
: Empire, the Ontario, California-based band blends punk and :
:' surf-rock into a finespun sound thatÆs viscerally charged yet ':
,: gracefully melodic. And in their lyrics, Ariel View share :,
: stories of drinking too much and missing the wrong people and :
:' dreaming of running thousands of miles away, with sisters ':
,: Harmonie and Heaven delivering each of their lines with both raw :,
: sensitivity and defiant self-assurance. :
:' ':
,: Recorded at Route 2 Recording Studios in L.A. and produced by :,
: Joe Reinhart (Hop Along, Remo Drive), Until My Lungs Are Cleared :
:' takes its title from a song that Harmonie wrote when she was ':
,: 14-years-old. With its gauzy guitar tones and languid rhythms, :,
: the track unfolds in a delicate reverie that hints at Ariel :
:' ViewÆs psych-rock-inspired sensibilitiesùa dream state thatÆs ':
,: disrupted by the palpable pain of HarmonieÆs lyrics (e.g., ôI'll :,
: forget you one day so I could finally sing all these songs/That :
:' remind me of youö). And while Harmonie describes ôUntil My ':
,: Lungs Are Clearedö as ôa song about being a bad kid, and going :,
: out with friends and partying and just wandering around,ö Nadine :
:' notes its intense emotional impact. ôItÆs this horribly sad ':
,: breakup song about how you canÆt live without this person, and :,
: youÆre just waiting until the day when youÆre okay enough to :
:' sing the song you used to sing together,ö she says. ':
,: :,
: On ôFriday Nightsö veers into a much grittier mood, taking on a :
:' breakneck momentum as Harmonie reflects on the ending of a ':
,: two-year relationship. ôI watched that whole relationship and :,
: saw how toxic it wasùit made me so sad to see my sister go :
:' through that,ö says Heaven. ôWhen I heard the lyrics to æFriday ':
,: Nights,Æ I knew what every line meant. It hits so hard because :,
: it comes from a very real place.ö :
:' ':
,: One song later, on ôSummertime,ö Until My Lungs Are Cleared :,
: offers up an anthem built on bouncy beats, airy harmonies, and :
:' self-possessed lyrics (ôMe and my friends will make it every ':
,: nightö). But with Harmonie pointing out that ômost of these :,
: songs are breakup songs,ö the album assumes a feverish urgency :
:' on ôMidnightöùa track that first appeared as a stripped-back ':
,: acoustic number on Ariel ViewÆs 2015 self-titled debut, then :,
: emerged as a lo-fi demo on 2017Æs Leo. ôæMidnightÆ is :
:' interesting to look at, because itÆs gone through so many ':
,: stages,ö says Nadine. ôOn the first version, Harm is way younger :,
: and sheÆs got this little-kid voice, and now with the new :
:' version you can really see the growth of the band, and what ':
,: Ariel View is today.ö :,
: :
:' Founded in 2014, Ariel View began as a two-piece featuring ':
,: Harmonie and a former member who left the duo soon after theyÆd :,
: released their debut. ôWhen that happened my dad told me I :
:' should have Heaven join,ö Harmonie recalls. ôShe was only ':
,: 12-years-old at the time and I was like, æI donÆt want this kid :,
: in my bandÆùbut then she started playing with us, and it was :
:' actually really good.ö (Both lifelong musicians, the Martinez ':
,: sisters have played in a number of cover bands with their :,
: fatherùincluding a Smiths cover band and a Beatles cover :
:' bandùwith Miranda and Nadine sometimes also joining those ':
,: groups onstage.) :,
: :
:' As they began playing more showsùand shaping a sonic identity ':
,: largely inspired by alt-rock bands like The Strokes and The :,
: GrowlersùAriel View cycled through many guitarists and drummers, :
:' eventually bringing Nadine into the fold. ôOne of their former ':
,: drummers is a coworker of mine,ö says Nadine, who works at Sam :,
: Ash Music. ôThe band did a photo shoot and I thought they looked :
:' cool, so I got on Instagram and DM-ed them like, æHey, can I be ':
,: in your band?Æö Within a week of hearing back, Nadine learned :,
: all of Ariel ViewÆs songs and met with them for a jam session, :
:' then immediately joined as their drummer. Not long after that, ':
,: they found their lead guitarist in Miranda, who played in a :,
: local band called MoonFuzz. After admiring her guitar skills for :
:' months on end, Heaven received an Instagram message from ':
,: Miranda, asking if she wanted to get together and play. After a :,
: few jam sessions, Heaven asked Miranda to join the band. With :
:' their lineup solidified at last, Ariel View landed their deal ':
,: with Epitaph soon after the release of Leo, and set to work on :,
: Until My Lungs Are Cleared at the start of 2018. :
:' ':
,: Over the years, Ariel View have gone from playing backyard :,
: parties to taking the stage at festivals like Top Acid :
:' Festùwhere, at the 2018 festival, the band dealt with a bomb ':
,: scare during their set. ôThere were a lot of skinhead punks that :,
: year, and somebody brought a fake grenade,ö says Nadine. ôThe :
:' SWAT team showed up and there were helicopters everywhere, and ':
,: Harm and I just looked at each other like, æFuck it, letÆs just :,
: play through itùif we die, we die.Æ But we didnÆt die, and it :
:' was great.ö ':
,: :,
: As a queer-identified band, Ariel View are passionate about :
:' supporting and empowering the LGBTQ community, and creating an ':
,: inclusive space at all of their showsùa spirit of solidarity :,
: that deeply informed the songwriting on Until My Lungs Are :
:' Cleared. ôWeÆve had a lot of people come up to us and tell us ':
,: how our songs have helped them feel more comfortable with being :,
: themselves, which is a really great feeling,ö says Harmonie. ôI :
:' know that I personally go to music to feel like someone else ':
,: understands what IÆm feeling, and that it definitely relieves my :,
: anxiety. So if our music can make other people feel better and a :
:' little less alone, that would be the best reward.ö ':
