After a break of four years, the heavy shoegazers are seeking to quench our #Thirst for new material by sating it with the title track of their upcoming third album:
Speaking about the new album, bassist/vocalist Isa Halliday says:
‘Thirst’ is about an unquenchable desire for what’s next, with focus on essence and balance. Not losing yourself in the ever-growing distractions that surround us. A yearning pulse for renewal, ‘Thirst’ ripples with a craving for something pure, something vital. It churns with an unrelenting drive, building an electrifying momentum that surges forward and breaks through, offering both release and rebirth.
The album’s overarching theme is what Isa describes as “the fragility of human connection, and the complexity of love and self-identity”.
We want people to let themselves go and feel embraced by the music, so that they can experience it in 4D. That’s what we hear a lot from people who come to see us live, or people who’ve listened to our previous albums, is that we take them to another dimension. I think that’s something that we miss in this day and age with everything that’s going on in the world, making us very aware of everything outside, but not allowing us to just be in the moment as much as you should. We want to let people take a moment for themselves and let the music take them wherever they would like to go.
- ‘Thirst‘ will be released via Pure Noise Records on 29 August.
