Sacred Paws announce first album in half a decade, Jump Into Life
Glasgow/London duo Sacred Paws have returned to the fold after a five year hiatus, announcing their new album, Jump Into Life, alongside the release of first single, "Turn Me Down".
Released late last year, the band's first single in five years, “Another Day” introduced the thematic thread, of remaining positive in the face of heartbreak. This thread is continued on new single, "Turn Me Down", which the band says is "about the rawness of rejection".
"It’s something I reckon everyone feels at some point in their life - those moments when however irrational it might seem to feel so deeply the feeling is still there. It felt cathartic to write a song about it with quite dramatic rhythms and a big vocal melody," they add. "We really loved working on the vocal melodies for this song," they say. "The harmonies took a while to figure out as it’s not something we have done a lot in the past but the singing added something really epic. The lyrics are so simple and raw that it really needed to pack a punch as a song.”
“It’s definitely a Sacred Paws record but it feels a bit older and wiser,” the pair explain of their new chapter. “We took a few years working on the songwriting and pushed ourselves creatively. We wrote a lot in that time, but we made sure every song had something that we fell in love with.”
