Formation have posted a video for their new track, A Friend.
The song will feature on the London quintet's debut album, 'Look At The Powerful People', which is due for release on March 24.
Discussing the song and its clip, frontman Will Ritson said:
"A Friend kicks off with pummelling immediacy; lyrics that read like age-old maxims are spat out, while bleeps and ticks of percussion misdirect you. It’s all ducking and weaving, building and growing…Snapshot moments of space allow you seconds of relief before the song dives into its anthemic resolution. “And when I’m alone you are my only friend,” it screams, hitting you right where it matters most..
This is reflected perfectly in the music video, directed by Davis Silas, where the drama of the music is taken to visual extremes. It becomes a twisted, violent dance that transcends the line between lover and enemy, protagonist and belligerent. The narrative is as passionate and relentless, choosing to reference key lyrics at the right moment. All contained on a rolling tube carriage, but who knows where it’s going?”
The band will play a run of UK shows next month as part of a wider European tour.
