NEW ALBUM ANNOUNCED

Inanimate Objects Of The 21st Century

Technology is moving, but we are not. Human civilisation entered the 21st century wide-eyed and naive with mobile phones that would barely fit in our pockets. Fast forward a few decades and we’re so far from where we were that it almost looks like a bad 80’s sci-fi movie. Back then, that film would be watched in packed-out cinemas after an eagerly anticipated release, but now they stand emptier than they once were, attended mainly as a nostalgic experience in the age of Netflix and doomscrolling. 

The birth of AI, algorithms, cryptocurrency, drones, holographic concerts, autonomous cars… we’re living in a strange transitional period which is both fascinating and terrifying in equal measure. We humans have now in fact become the inanimate objects - mannequins. 

This album explores a few of these themes, observing from the trenches as a not-so-serious band in the context of it all, but still trying to navigate our way through the new age. After our softer, melancholic second album ‘The Big Sad’, we felt it was only right to move as fast as our world is moving and release our next within the year. ‘Inanimate Objects of The 21st Century’ is the evil twin, the Yin to The Big Sad’s Yang.
