Bdrmm bite back with new single, "Lake Disappointment"
Hull four-piece Bdrmm have returned with "Lake Disappointment", as the third song to land from their upcoming third album, Microtonic.
Following on from "John on the Ceiling" and "Infinity Peaking", the electronics of the third single, "Lake Disappointment" are the sound of a band not only subverting their sound but unafraid to bite back.
Being asked to support Daniel Avery, along with a trip to Field Day for a group rave, were both instrumental moments in the band deciding to incorporate more dance music elements into a sound that had already been moving steadily towards across recent releases.
"Lake Disappointment is probably the most aggressive and exciting song we've conjured up," says Ryan Smith. "I remember sending it to Alex (our producer) and I've never seen him so excited about a track. It was such a dream to work on. I feel like within all the melancholy of the record there is a lot of anger too. This is us getting that out, and saying fuck you to the wrongdoers."
Microtonic will land on 28 February via Mogwai’s Rock Action label, and is available to pre-order.
