““It's Over” came together during a difficult situation,” Palace explain. “It comes from feeling the need to accept what will be, no matter how bad things are. It's the realisation that things that seem so solid can be so brittle.”

As we edge closer to the release of their long-awaited debut full-length So Long Forever - due 4 November via Fiction Records - the London four are anything but brittle.

Ever since they appeared with the attention-grabbing “Veins” back in 2014, Leo Wyndham (guitar, vocals), Rupert Turner (guitar), Will Dorey (bass) and Matt Hodges (drums) have been filling something of a blues-rock gap in the UK scene with increasing assurance.

“It’s Over” it’s filled with the elements we have come to love from Palace: Wyndham’s distinctive, guttural vocal paints the gently melancholy picture above intricate, interweaving layers of guitar, splashing percussion and warm, rumbling bass. The increasingly impassioned refrain is cleverly coloured with a splash of hope as the track builds to its falsetto-lead climax.

Another wholly impressive, brilliantly returnable outing from a band whose journey you feel is far from over.

Palace are on tour with a London headline show at Brixton Electric on 23 November - tickets and info here.
