Posted by Wolf Alice are back.
Feel that? Spring is in the air, vaccinations are being rolled out, and festivals are moving with a little more confidence.
Time for a new Wolf Alice album, then. After weeks of teasing the follow up to 2017’s ‘Visions Of A Life’ has been announced, with ‘Blue Weekend’ set to land on June 11th.
New song ‘The Last Man On Earth’ is out now, and it’s a Vonnegut-referencing protest against human-manufactured dystopias.
A blast of light from dark clouds, it’s a bold return, with that Wolf Alice crunch bound to a serene sense of grace.
The sound of one of the country’s finest guitar groups moving with utmost confidence, ‘The Last Man On Earth’ eases Wolf Alice into a fresh chapter.
Ellie Rowsell comments…
“It’s about the arrogance of humans. I’d just read Kurt Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle and I had written the line ‘Peculiar travel suggestions are dancing lessons from god’ in my notes. But then I thought: ‘Uh, your peculiar travel suggestion isn’t a dancing lesson from god, it’s just a travel suggestion! Why does everything need to mean something more?’”
Jordan Hemingway directs the full video, which airs at 7pm tonight.
