Folly Group have shared a brand new track,
‘Paying The Price’ - the latest taste of upcoming second EP
'Human and Kind', set for release on 25th March via Ninja Tune imprint Technicolor.
The band’s Sean Harper explains: “‘Paying The Price’ loosely documents commuting. Louis wrote the title/hook (“Paying the price, shame it feels so nice”) and to me it summarised the questions so many London residents have for themselves: “This place is toxic, awful people are everywhere, literally everything feels like a competition, the endless demands the cost of living in this city imposes upon me are making me a more stressed out, confused, paranoid, depressed person. Why do I love it here?”
On the EP, the band continue: “Where [debut EP] '
Awake and Hungry' doubled as a diary of the band’s formative months and encapsulation of our live show, 'Human and Kind' is a projection of our ambition, and our desire to push ourselves through what we might previously have perceived as the ceiling of possibility for four players. The release is at once introspective and extroverted: it attempts to be a dynamic interrogation of grief and growth.”
