English post-punk band
White Lies
are without doubt on a roll in the lead-up to their highly anticipated third studio album ‘
Big TV’ (
out August 12). Recent single ’
There Goes Our Love Again
‘ (stream the video below) has fuelled our excitement with its howling,
Joy Devision
meets
The Killers
appeal. The song has an energising combination of surfy electric guitar, up-beat rhythms and swirling synths which create layered and melodic rock. It’s recently seen remixes from the likes of
Hostage
,
TORN
and
Goose
.
On the back of its success, the band have taken things down a notch, this week releasing their latest track ‘Change ‘. The second single is overwhelmingly heavy. The inclusion of dark, reverberating instruments creates a deep and passionate underscore to the emotional lyrics. The pairing of slow deep strings creates a cinematic like feel that compliment the desperation and hopelessness in lead singer Harry McVeigh voice.
You can pre-order Big TV in and format. Follow the band on for more.
