Blue Drift serves as the latest preview of their new album, 'As I Try Not To Fall Apart', due for release this Friday February 18.
The track has a distinct '80s feel thanks to the playful synth melodies and echoey vocals, while staying true to the English band's rock-leaning roots with guitar also driving the melody. Bassist Charles Cave said:
"Dare I say it this is another tip-toe into a more progressive-rock realm. The song feels very much a nighttime drive to me, winding empty roads, foreign air creeping in through the window. It’s a song about being humbled by the mind’s ability to lift us up and bring us down. It’s grand, full of longing and bombast, but there is an uneasiness to it too. It never quite resolves. This is going to be HUGE when we play it live!"
White Lies will support the record with a tour of the UK and Ireland, to which they've recently added a stop at Gloucester Guildhall, followed by an extensive trek across Europe throughout April and May. Tickets are on sale now.
