Chalk will wrap up their 'Conditions' trilogy with a new EP next February

Chalk have announced a new EP, and shared lead single 'Tell Me'.

The Belfast post-punk and electronic outfit's new EP 'Conditions III' is set for release on 21st February 2025 via Nice Swan Records, marking the final installment of their trilogy.

Frontman Ross Cullen says of the themes explored in 'Tell Me': "'Tell Me' is the first release of our trilogy-ending third EP 'Conditions III'. For this track, we conjured up a world in which the song's protagonist is running away from a dark past into unknown territory, encountering an unsuspecting new acquaintance on their journey. It's a song that dives head-first into themes of the unknown, breaking norms, and a feeling of running away and never wanting to return again. It explores the idea that life is moving rapidly around us and the lack of belonging, confusion, and disassociation one experiences on their journey, growing older in an increasingly discouraging and bleak urban landscape. These are themes of which we've scratched the surface with 'Conditions' and 'Conditions II'; but we want to delve even deeper into their grittier sides as we continue to figure ourselves out along the way."
