Tropical F*ck Storm deliver new single "New Romeo Agent"
Tropical Fuck Storm have unveiled new cut "New Romeo Agent" as the latest taster of their forthcoming album Deep States.
"New Romeo Agent" follows last month's "G.A.F.F." single, and sees the group's Erica Dunn take the lead on vocals.
Dunn says of the track, "Our love & death tragedy-ballad kicks off in the aftermath of Octavia Butler's short story Amnesty where a translator for the human race infiltrates an alien community Cold War Romeo agent style. Sent to collect secrets and glean intelligence, against all odds, the undercover spy falls in love. As our human/alien inamorates connect in an intimate new language, they decide to make a run for it. We glimpse an oasis of hope in defiance of the violence and backstabbery of their masters. We imagine a tropical island of romance in an icy sea devoid of solar warmth. We look back on the spinning wheel of progress and feel that all the desperation, despair and heartache of the past could finally be worth it for this moment, a conquest of love! A clock striking for a new age! But, they get murdered. The end."
Deep States will follow the Australian band's 2019 album Braindrops, and will feature last year's "Suburbiopia" and "Legal Ghost" tracks.
