Crack Cloud share new single, "The Medium"
Canadian art punks Crack Cloud have released their new single, "The Medium", which is taken from their upcoming album, Red Mile.
Following last month's lead single "Blue Kite", the new single serves as Red Mile’s de facto thesis statement, and an ode to rock music’s form and its practitioners. The genre — typical, repeatable, corporatised as it can be — somehow still has the power to help us live through life. We see that the dusty sentiment of “I love rock and roll” can be exhumed, taken apart, and stitched back together.
A departure from the hermetic, multi-year gestation of their astounding 2020 album Pain Olympics, and their 2022 follow-up work, Tough Baby, Red Mile is the product of swift, group collaboration from Zach Choy, Aleem Khan, Bryce Cloghesy, Will Choy, Emma Acs, Eve Adams and Nathaniel Philipps.
Red Mile is out on 26 July via Jagjaguwar. For more information on their live dates, visit crackcloud.ca.
