SOTW4424 Foreign Air "Save Us"

There's often things you can't quite explain to someone else unless they're living / feeling / going through the same stuff as you are. You know, it's understandable that people won't get excited for something you cannot convey with words –and sometimes even if you can. Well, I suffer from this when I try to explain to people what Foreign Air is all about.

"Like having a musical fever dream" is what I would say in the end. They have indie, pop, electro and alternative influences that they use like weapons to blow your mind in every way possible. I'm not even kidding. They've uploaded the making of a song –that I like way too much, by the way– and I think that video would really get the point across on how the Foreign Air machinery works. They even throw a freaking hawk squeal in there.

After a little break post-tour, they're back with a new song that, in my opinion, is a little bit tamer and easier to digest, I guess –not necessarily a bad thing, though. The song is called "Save Us" and it's the first release after their debut album.

I think the video helps illustrate a point that lyrics may not address directly or may leave room for interpretation: social decay due and modern technology.

I hope you like it and have the courage to dig deeper in their music. They really are great and have a different style that I've yet to see replicated.

Until the next one!
