Pet Shimmers announce second album of 2020 with lead single "Imber"
Bristol's Pet Shimmers are back with news of their second album of the year, Trash Earthers, and have unveiled the lead single "Imber".
"Imber" is the first new track from Pet Shimmers since their debut LP Face Down In Meta landed in January,
Vocalist Oliver Wilde says of the new song, "How much proof do you need before you act on something? How much injustice will it take to activate people’s actions? "Imber" is a place, but I may have got the place wrong - where I used to live there used to be an abandoned park called Imber, which I think is now a military training ground. We used to break in and run around, but I guess that’s now irrelevant."
Wilde says of their upcoming LP, "During this time, all we’ve been fed is what’s happening in the news, and it quite literally looks like the world is burning, but we have to believe there’s some hope. I guess the record aims to mirror the confusion of this unfamiliar period of history."
He adds, "Although some of it has its tongue in its cheek so to speak, it is more aggressive - it’s less celebratory and is more frustrated."
