Bones Ate Arfa have returned with a new single, ‘It’s All Good’, marking the latest release from the Brighton desert-grunge/alt-rock trio.
A DIY video, shot at Shoreham Skatepark, is due in early to mid-September and nods to skate culture, the town and community that shaped the group, and a recent link-up with skate brand Wasted Paris.
Arfa (bass/vocals) explains: “It’s All Good is about how everything in the world seems so messed up, but you just carry on like everything’s ‘all good’. It’s introspective on realising our own privilege as well, like we’re out here doing what we love and playing shows all the time, even as a small band. And it’s like damn, we are so lucky to be able to do this.
“We wanted to be able to channel the sound of some bands we’ve been getting more and more into recently too, like the 2000s skater sounds of Deftones, Slipknot, Rueben, Paramore and more modern bands of the same vein like South Arcade. All while staying true to our blown out bass tones and gritty production.”
