Manchester's Chemtrails unleash new single, "Bang Bang"
Manchester band Chemtrails have released "Bang Bang" as the latest single from their forthcoming album, The Joy Of Sects.
“We wanted to write a kind of Kinks-style song from the point of view of a bragging crypto bro, bigging themselves up and flaunting their piles of cash. It’s fun singing lyrics that stand against everything you believe in. The plot twist at the end is that the protagonist reveals all the hype was a lie, and they actually have nothing at all, but still believe that they’re “going to the moon” eventually," the band explains.
For the forthcoming album, they've traded in their traditional DIY approach to recording to work with in-demand producer Margo Broom, whose studio magic is responsible for Fat White Family, Big Joanie and Goat Girl records.
The Joy Of Sects is out 19 January via PNKSLM.
