“Call You Home” is the latest single by Onism E, an exceptional band based in San Antonio, Texas. Arriving as a proper continuation of “I’m Sorry,” a superb track released in 2023, “Call You Home” is their first piece of work this year that will immediately appeal to anyone looking for expertly assembled and flawlessly performed music. Inspired by the current state of the world we’re all living in, principal songwriter Eline Chavez wrote this track during the transitional time, focusing on the home as a primary piece of the puzzle that ties “Call You Home” together. Her storytelling lyricism vividly describes all the flaws of modern times while contributing emotional depth to the song. Soundwise, Onism E combines only the finest sonic ingredients that also defined their music before. Perhaps alternative rock comes to mind first, but you’ll also stumble upon elements borrowed from indie rock or soft rock. They tastefully combined all these fundamental elements, creating a calm, soothing, relaxing, ethereal ballad that will immediately resonate with even the pickiest listeners.
Eline Chavez’s incredible voice acts as a centerpiece, commanding the attention and guiding the listening apparatus from scratch to finish with such precision and finesse. Her passionate, sincere, confident, emotional, powerful vocal performance emphasizes everything Onism E intended to achieve with the song while the impressive vocal range seamlessly balances low, mid, and high notes. These vocal harmonies decorate all those segments and instrumentations, spicing things up and elevating “Call You Home” to new heights. Eline Chavez guides you through the expansive, luxuriant sonic universe where her vocal harmonies harmoniously collide with fascinating sonic and rhythmic maneuvers. In the meantime, the interplay between guitars shapes a perfect backdrop for all the vocals to shine upon. You’ll notice how cleverly assembled chord progressions delivered on acoustic guitar resonate on one side while the other catchy, memorable, engaging, jangly, angular, arpeggiated chord progressions. This guitar works to give a beautiful, otherworldly, and reverby dimension to this track, making it even more pleasant to the ears. The generous servings of reverb, echo, and delay effects uplift this song even more, contributing to its psychedelic, ethereal quality. It’s also good to mention that Chavez’s marvelous voice perfectly matches all these guitar works, so it’s one of those tracks that will instantly convince you to spin it over and over again.
Of course, “Call You Home” wouldn’t sound this good without an equally impressive rhythm section. You’ll hear how Gabe Chavez delivers intricate, audible, warm-sounding basslines, providing more than necessary heftiness, clearness, and deepness while binding all those orchestrations with rhythm patterns. These low-ends and rich, deep, and dense, contributing more power to this track. In the meantime, Andre Atalaya’s outstanding drumming performance based upon expertly crafted, flawlessly performed, well-accentuated beats, breaks, fills, and other percussive acrobatics keeps the remainder of the instrumentations in line while dictating groove and tempo. These rhythmic sequences are subtle, but at some points, they become much heavier, depending on the current mood of the song. Onism E thought about even the tiniest details and nuances, so if the guitars act as a perfect backdrop for all the vocals to shine upon, then the bass and drums serve as a backbone, holding everything together. Each vocal harmony, strum over the strings, and punch of the snare has its place and purpose, and the entire band executed each sonic and rhythmic maneuver with a lot of style.
As soon as you press play, you’ll immediately notice that Onism E poured heart and soul into this track. The song arrives with a perfect structure, adorned with many profoundly intricate segments, brilliant ideas, and impressive orchestrations. It vividly showcases their dedication to the craft, experience, knowledge, creativity, talent, and skill of the entire band. These highly skilled musicians have created another masterpiece that will not only indulge listening apparatuses of alternative and indie rock fans but also those looking for emotional, meaningful music, crafted with heart and soul. You should immediately place “Call You Home” on your music radar. The single is available on all streaming platforms. Don’t miss it!
