Slow Fiction return with new single, "Brother"
New York's Slow Fiction with "Brother" as their first release since the Crush EP came out earlier this year.
Recorded in their home studio in Brooklyn, "Brother" faces loss and grief head on whilst exploring its impact on the adolescent experimentation and exploration we all go through. Julia sings to her brother here for the first time, and finds comfort that she's not moving on from it but moving with.
“The track was written this summer, the day after we played one of our favourite shows, and came together really naturally," the band explains. "The inspiration centred around finding personal identity while experiencing grief, how we can be growing as individuals, but still hold onto pieces of those we have lost. It explores and enunciates a feeling that even though there’s deep sadness in grief, there’s also an equally deep love and remembrance. Time and grief are the original unstoppable force versus immovable object. How does time change us, and how do our perceptions change time?”
"Brother" is out now via So Young Records.
