Kero Kero Bonito share new music “When the Fires Come”: Stream
Kero Kero Bonito have launched a brand new music referred to as “When the Fires Come”, which they’ve shared alongside its accompanying video. It arrives just a few months after the band’s earlier standalone single, “The Open Street”, dropped again in February.
“When the Fires Come” is the lead monitor from Kero Kero Bonito’s subsequent challenge. There aren’t many extra particulars on that upcoming launch, however it should function a follow-up to the British electro-pop act’s final full-length, 2018’s shock Time ‘n’ Place.
In a press launch, the band mentioned the brand new single is about “… the worldwide wildfires heralding the seemingly imminent local weather change apocalypse. It was partially impressed by our expertise on tour in North California final yr, once we acquired caught beneath the smoke cloud from the Camp Fire.”
Lead singer Sarah Midori Perry ushers in grand proclamations and observations within the monitor’s refrain. With a assured sense of tongue-in-cheek irony, she sings, “All all over the world they weep now they comprehend it’s true/ The solar’s returned to ship us residence to earth/ Everyone takes their time making work to do/ However nobody will likely be left right here to recollect us.” The central melody is targeted round a gleeful, synth-y pan flute development, including to that sense of dysphoric nostalgia.
The James Hankins-directed video finds the band exploring an array of pure landscapes, from lush forests to desolate deserts. There’s something extraordinarily unnerving about the best way Perry smiles whereas singing concerning the world ending in that baby-voiced tone. With the visuals and music collectively, “When the Fireplace Comes” turns into subversively confrontational in each instrumental building and supply.
