British duo Hurts are back with dramatic new single "Voices" - their first in three years.
After teasing their return over the past couple of weeks, Hurts have finally shared their first new single since 2017's Desire album.
Theo Hutchcraft of the duo explains, ""Voices" is a song about isolation, desperation and mania. It’s also about fortitude, resilience and the power of the mind. It was written during a personal crisis and is being released into the world during a very public one. Hopefully it can provide some hope and catharsis to anyone who is struggling with their own demons."
Hutchcraft also spoke to NME about the new single, and says, "The last few years have been all over the place for the pair of us. I was desperate to get that type of sentiment out. It’s a strange and paranoid pop song, which isn’t something that you hear very often. It’s looking at how the mind can be both a force for good and a force for evil. A lot of our music is very emotionally raw but there are depths we’ve yet to mine. "Voices" is probably as raw as a sentiment gets for me. It’s something I never really felt able to write about for a while. I hope people see that and it brings them closer to who we are."
