Circa Waves have announced their fifth studio album, ‘Never Going Under’, with a new single, ‘Do You Wanna Talk’

Circa Waves have released, ‘Do You Wanna Talk’, the first single from their newly-announced fifth album, ‘Never Going Under’.

The announcement quickly follows a recent surprise EP, ‘Hell On Earth’, and kicks off yet another new and revitalised era for the band after their longest absence to date. ‘Do You Wanna Talk’ arrives with a video directed by lead guitarist Joe Falconer, and gives fans a preview of Circa Waves’ new visual direction

‘Never Going Under’ will be released in full on January 13th via Lower Third / PIAS. Speaking on the record, frontman Kieran Shudall says: "’Never Going Under’ speaks to that uniquely modern phenomenon of genuinely not knowing what type of world our kids are going to find themselves in in 30 years. Physically, environmentally, politically we are completely in the unknown. That scares us all but ultimately we know we can never give up on the future because how can you?”

“The songs on the album are written differently from the previous work we've put out. They are written from the perspective of my son and also from my own current experience of the climate today,” he continues. “Circa Waves have always had a certain worldview, but now it's through that lense of being a Father and still not knowing what the hell is going on. ‘Never Going Under’ is a snapshot of the fear we all feel today and the resilience we will need to get through it."
