Words: Sam Geary
After recently ‘Minding the Haze’, the London psych-pop outfit Imperial Daze are now sharing 'People Are Animals', another track from their EP, ‘Surfaces Sensibles', out on June 7 via Tip Top Recordings, which was co-produced by the band and Rupert Jarvis and was recorded between The Drugstore (The Maccabees studio) and their own studio.
Released last week, 'People Are Animals' is another great example of their moody, layered psych-pop sound.
A commentary about humans in the digital age, the lyrics, they explain, "hints at the glaring contradiction that, although we are ever more digitally connected, these digital connections can ultimately be incredibly superficial and render us alien to those around us. This is a point often made, but as animals, we are less and less present with our kind. The concepts of digital immediacy, AI, pornography and the potential mental malaise and degradation of the mind due to technological addiction come in to play here."
