SPRINTS have announced two new singles, ‘Rage’ and ‘Beg’, taken from their upcoming album ‘All That Is Over’.
The Dublin four-piece’s second album will arrive on 26th September via City Slang worldwide and Sub Pop in North America, following their critically acclaimed debut ‘Letter To Self’.
Speaking about ‘Rage’, Karla Chubb explains: “I think in the world today, it’s a lot easier to be angry than it is to help facilitate change. People are fatigued, disillusioned – it’s understandable, but we shouldn’t be pointing the finger at those already marginalised and making them shoulder the blame. The world is full of false prophets and false promises; it’s time we call them out. Don’t let the rage bait fuel the fire and burn us all in the process.”
On ‘Beg’, Chubb adds: “‘Beg’ is a track that represents a lot of the key motifs, themes and topics we explore across the album. Sonically, it’s a sum of all of the parts, new and old, that make up the sound of All That Is Over. Inspired originally by a line in a Vladimir Holan poem, ‘Beg’ is written in part as a joke, a call and response to the question, ‘Is Karla Jesus?’ that was written atop a moodboard when we were brainstorming ideas for a music video.”
