Brighton based band Squid are happy to be releasing a new track called “Broadcaster”. It’s one of the few tracks we actually had time to road-test before the lockdown! It’s got a real sci-fi vibe which feels pretty relevant in our increasingly dystopian surroundings. We hope you enjoy it…and how could we forget… it’s being released on vinyl with Sludge.
The Brighton rock group Squid have shared their second single of the year. It’s called “Broadcaster.” Give it a listen below.
“Lyrically the track was inspired by the visual artist Naim June Paik and his TV Garden installation,” the band’s drummer/vocalist Ollie Judge said in a statement. “I thought it blurred the lines between a dystopian and utopian vision. I imagined what it must be like living synonymously amongst nature and technology in the most literal way I could imagine, with TVs towering over me amongst forests.”
Earlier this year, Squid shared “Sludge,” which was their debut song for Warp Records. On June 26th, Squid and Warp will release a 10″ vinyl record with “Sludge” and an extended edition of “Broadcaster.”
Taken from the ‘Sludge/Broadcaster’ Limited edition 10″ Vinyl, released 26 June on WARP Records.
