Ahead of the release of their debut album Letter to Self this Friday, January 5, Sprints have shared one more single from it called ‘Heavy’. It follows previous offerings ‘Adore Adore Adore’, ‘Shadow of a Doubt’, ‘Literary Mind’, and ‘Up and Comer’. Check it out below.
“If Ticking is the sonic iteration of anxiety, then Heavy is its literal counterpart,” lead vocalist Karla Chubb explained in a statement. “The brutally cacophonous sound communicates how it feels to be paralysed and inspired by anxiety, pairing intrusive thoughts, panic and intensity with that anxiety inducing build. Heavily inspired my early Bauhaus records and PJ Harvey’s Is This Desire? it draws a heavy influence from 80s gothic-the purposeful space reflecting the isolating nature of panic.”
