DEADLETTER have shared a new single, ‘Binge’.
“’Binge’ was written in no more than 25 minutes during rehearsals for a tour in January,” singer Zac Lawrence explains.
“Using our usual formula of ‘drumbeat, bassline, lyrics, seasoning’ it was quickly realised that we had to include it in our coming live shows and record it without further ado. Sometimes the energy of a track’s just there, you don’t have to think about it for a year.”
“Hearing the word ‘Binge’, we may initially be drawn to a very specific image or thought of a person or a habit, however when we take a closer look at society it can be realised that bingeing is inherent within our behaviour as human beings,” he continues. “Whether it be something as mundane as collecting stamps, or devotion of your existence to a deity, we are all bingers through and through and, ultimately, life is one long binge.”
