We’ve been hypnotised by Formation’s every move for quite a while now, but ahead of tomorrow’s release of ‘Look At The Powerful People’, the band have pulled something quite spectacular out of the bag with new number ‘Ring’.
The scorching six minute sizzler pulls you along for a truly infectious and euphoric ride, building from a menacing bass line into a blossoming delight that knocks down everything in its way. Full of soul, grooves and passion – it’s Formation at their very best.
Speaking about the track, frontman Will Ritson said:
“Ring is based on personal experiences of bullying, paranoia and alienation told to me by a close friend a few years ago. Lyrically, it’s the advice I wish I’d been able to give at that time, beyond merely consolation, it’s an honest, no BS, two fingers to those who pleasure in putting you down.”
Following on from runaway movers like ‘Pleasure’, ‘A Friend’, ‘Drugs’ and ‘Powerful People’, Formation will release their debut LP ‘Look At The Powerful People’ tomorrow (March 24th) – with the guys currently in the midst of a UK headline run. We caught up with the guys to talk about the album and a load more in last month’s magazine, which you can check out in full here.
Spin into ‘Ring’ below, trust us you won’t wanna get out,
