New Zealand electronic trio SoccerPractise have debuted their punchy new single ‘Posture’, the first cut from their forthcoming album ‘Te Pō’, set for release in October.
Following last year's 'Kaua E Mate Wheke', ‘Posture’ is governed by Geneva Alexander-Marsters' vocal mantra - "Head over heart heart over pelvis / Maintain your posture or you will be dealt with" - over a pulsing, lo-fi industrial garage beat that erupts with siren guitars.
"The song is about maintaining composure in a world of myriad contradictions and cynicism," says Geneva. "It’s about how best intentions can can be enveloped and absorbed by chaos and things are fall apart all around you. it’s an acerbic self help mantra, but really about how sometimes the only person you have to believe in you is you. It’s also about my parents. And yoga.”
