Pom Poko have dropped another single from their upcoming record Champion – out August 16 via Bella Union. It follows the previously released ‘Growing Story’ and the title track. Listen to it below.
“This song is about the times when you feel like your life is just a never-ending messy to-do list, or like unorganised cleaning, you just do a lot of stuff and when you take a breath you don’t understand what you did or if you cleaned anything at all,” the band explained in a statement. “And you can’t think of any solution but to run away. Somehow we ended up writing an instrumental that ended up being nearly impossible to play. We ended up combining string harmonics in both guitar and bass with uneven musical periods at a breakneck speed, which is a daring choice to say the least. This will be a fun – and challenging! – song to play live.”
