I’m not typically one for obscured vocals and the general overuse of reverb; however, in the case of Rites Wild, I can make an exception. While Rites While may hide the more natural sounds of their music, it actually creates a pretty haunting atmosphere. I suppose, to an extent, it could be labeled as dream pop, but there’s something quite ambient about their sound as well, reinforced by very simple drum machine beats and some very calming synth tones as well.
