Noah Chenfeld further cements his status as New York’s brutally honest troubadour with new offering “Late.” Expanding beyond the upbeat cynicism of last year’s “I Love Being Tired,” his latest track is a dark lamentation on the eggs broken to make an omelette; brooding organ riffs accent Chenfeld’s crooned aphorisms, bitter statements on unsavory choices and necessary evils. Amidst these dejected declaratives is Chenfeld’s brand of vintage-inspired indie — driving guitars and gain-heavy vox embed “Late” with a classic sound, further driving home the timeless nature of the song’s themes, the adversity inherent to modern living. Drink it in with our premiere below.
