LIFE return with punchy new track "Bum Hour"
LIFE have returned with "Bum Hour", the third single to be shared from their upcoming album A Picture Of Good Health.
"Bum Hour" lands after "Moral Fibre" and "Hollow Thing".
Speaking about the new single, vocalist Mez Green says, ""Bum Hour" is the isolation when you shut your door. "Bum Hour" is about not being at ease on your own. "Bum Hour" is ‘that’ pattern and routine broken. It’s the need to live again in that moment as you watch the bars buzz from your lone-parent window. Your only comfort, your saviour, your little boy in his bedroom. You find yourself scrolling through your phone an act of self-harm and torture. Your mates are out - you lie down and sleep."
LIFE's new album A Picture Of Good Health follows on from their 2017 debut album Popular Music, and is produced by Luke Smith (Foals) and mixed by Claudius Mittendorfer (Parquet Courts).
Green adds of the record, "A Picture Of Good Health is not a collage of work but rather a snapshot of time; our time and the time of those around us. It’s political, but in a personal way. It’s a body of work that explores and examines the band's inner-selves through a precise period; a period that has brought pain, loneliness, blood, guts, single parenthood, depression and the need for survival and love. It is the sense and need for belonging that is the resounding end note!"
