A new track from The Weeknd just dropped via his Twitter a few moments ago.
‘Kiss Land’ retains some of the darkly sexual tones of Echoes of Silence (the last part of Trilogy) wrapped up in a slickly-produced track that nearly hits the eight minute mark. The sense of urgency, panic and paranoia that Abel Tesfaye evokes so well still remains although all signs would point to the next record – due out later this year – being a complex listen, to say the least.
Listen to ‘Kiss Land’ below.
