Quietly delivered on the song, which the band released with the sort of quiet confidence that comes from identifying exactly who you are, "Dream little Lies" is a statement, no more or less. A response to the never-ending complaint, "They don't write good music anymore." Secret Molecules do, and they're proving it one chord or many, given their approach at a time.
The tune is a journey through various guitar tracks, powerful melodies, and meaningful vocals. It rocks with the DNA of classic rock but beats with a modern sincerity that is both intimate and cinematic. There's joy here, sorrow, and the pensive afterglow that lasts long.
Born out of a love for music, nothing more than a joy for playing, "Dream little Lies" touches on something most artists merely pursue, and few actually find authentic. The opaque lyrics kept close to the vest here sketch a dreamy landscape of the human condition, hinting that we may all sleepwalk through life on some level and hold fast to our illusions, perhaps even needing them.
Secret Molecules offers more than mere volume in a world of background noise and forgettable hooks. "Dream little Lies" is also not just another tune. It gives you a reason to believe in great songwriting again.
