Track Of The Day :: The Wild State - Air Runs Out




Words: Ellie Ward

New Brighton kids on the melancholic pop block, The Wild State, offer something of a richly veined gem in their sumptuous new single 'Air Runs Out', released on February 1.

Singer and lyricist Josh Difford nails both components in a three and a half minute sojourn of looped guitars and compelling vocals that is hard to have end. The song, written about the break down of a suffocating relationship ("The ground we share is breaking / And the air we breathe is poison"), is taken from the trio's debut LP ‘Light Along The Waves’ produced by Peter Katis (The National, Interpol, Kurt Vile).

"It's the horrible process of love turning stale and about why we sometimes tolerate it for routine and security," says Difford of 'Air Runs Out', which is unlikely to become similarly stale.
