Next Week’s Washing – “Go Higher” | Finding a way out of unresolved tension

Sharing a space does not necessarily mean understanding one another. In “Go Higher”, Next Week’s Washing explores that emotional distance through a narrator searching for an escape while caught between indecision, frustration and the feeling of being out of place.

The image of breathing in without being able to exhale captures much of the song’s unease: tension building without finding a resolution. Against that feeling, the idea of rising higher suggests a desire to gain perspective and leave behind whatever is holding the narrator back.

A new rhythmic drive beneath atmospheric guitars

The Toronto quintet shifts its blend of shoegaze, indie rock and alternative rock towards a more rhythm-driven approach. A propulsive bassline and drums influenced by late-eighties Madchester bring a stronger sense of movement, while the guitars retain their atmospheric density. Produced by Dylan Frankland, the track also features spontaneous studio details, including a guitar solo played entirely on the low E string.

Moving forward to find a different perspective

As the central track on Spiral, their second EP, “Go Higher” reflects a band expanding its sound without losing its identity. Its instrumental energy contrasts with a narrative shaped by uncertainty and emotional tension, turning the urge to move forward into a search for distance, control and a place to belong.
