Do Nothing are back with new single, ‘Uber Alles’.
It’s an early teaser from their just-announced EP ‘Glueland’, due for release on 12th March via the band’s own Exact Truth imprint, and arrives with news of a September/October UK tour, too.
Vocalist Chris Bailey says: “‘Uber Alles’ was the first song written for the new EP. Musically it takes a more decided, less rough around the edges approach than some of our previous material but lyrically it’s largely about being at ease with yourself, which is often tough to do.”
“Glueland is about the inevitable feeling of being thrown onto a big pile of your own rubbish and paddling around in it like some kind of dusty walrus. We worked to make the songs and artwork all feel like they came from the same universe. It came from recording situations that we felt very comfortable in, and the tedious absence of live shows meant that we could stagger in some new directions without having to make sure that it all worked onstage. Don’t worry, we made sure not to actually write about being in lockdown… because who wants to hear about that?”
