Normandie have revealed a video for their new single Babylon, taken from their forthcoming album Dark & Beautiful Secrets.
“Babylon wasn’t supposed to happen” explains vocalist Philip Strand. “With the COVID restrictions, it landed us more time to dive into the studio again and play around with new ideas. The song came purely from just having fun and playing around using breaths and coughs as instruments.”
“I’ve been searching for my identity my entire life. Going from group to group, crowd to crowd, trying to fit in – finally, I realised that my true identity is something I should form myself,” he adds. “‘Are you following or falling out’ is a line I wanted to use to express the way many of these groups behave. You’re either in or out. To me, identity is what you get when you mix all the things you identify with, bits and pieces that then become you as whole.”
Dark & Beautiful Secrets is due for release on 19th February 2021 via Easy Life Records, available to pre-order HERE.
Normandie‘s UK/European headline tour has been postponed to Autumn 2021, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Support will come from special guests Thousand Below and Captives.
