Atlas Please arrives ahead of their September 4 show at the O2 Academy Brixton in London supporting Ezra Furman, where Du Blonde is also set to appear.
The track, which was produced by Bombay Bicycle Club's Jack Steadman, clocks in at just under three minutes but achieves a lot in the time. Singer Felix Bushe delivers thoughtful lyrics in an effortless falsetto, backed by roiling indie-funk."I know at times it's dark, but you don't have to take it so far," he sings.
Discussing the song, Bushe said:
"Atlas Please' is us considering that our lasting memories are the ones shared in good company - although, at times it can feel as though the weight of the world is resting on your shoulders. Talking to friends and considering our own personal experiences, we’re mindful that we often find it easier to suffer in silence than to open up - so being able to identify when someone you care about is hurting and to make the time to help them is an incredibly important and powerful thing to do. We hope you all enjoy the song, and look forward to seeing you soon.”
