Kero Kero Bonito have shared a new single, The Princess and the Clock.
It's the first track to be released from their new EP 'Civilisation II', the follow-up to 2019's 'Civilisation I', which is due out on April 21 via AWAL. Similar to its predecessor, the new EP was recorded using vintage recording equipment.
Discussing the experimental and expansive dance-pop song, the band said:
“The Princess and the Clock" is the tale of a young explorer who is kidnapped while sailing the world, imprisoned at the top of a tower and worshipped as royalty by an isolated society. Trapped in her chamber, she spends years dreaming of escaping, until one day she disappears. A legend of our own invention, "The Princess and the Clock" was written before Covid emerged, though the long, lonely hours and escapist dreams its protagonist experiences will be relatable to many right now. It's a song for anyone who has ever felt trapped, lost and alone.”
