Pre-order NUDE now :D
We can now download ARROW on iTunes, waiting for NUDE which will be out on October 1st (5 months to go…:/) :)
HEY! Time for very good news guys!
As you may already know, on Monday, The Irrepressibles’ new video for next single ARROW will be out for us to watch! Here is a little something about it:
““ARROW” is the first single to be released from THE IRREPRESSIBLES’ highly anticipated second album “NUDE” - showcasing their new direction in combining dark electronica with organic orchestration to try explain the complexity of life.
Here McDermott tells the story of a clumsy boy finding himself to be different - the turmoil of his adolescence - and his coming of age through his love for another boy. It is a deeply poetic piece about the beauty of the human spirit and how tender and fragile this is. The track combines ‘McDermott’s confessional lyrics and sky-scraping voice’ with dramatic Fassbinder / Kenneth Anger styled orchestrations and dark european electro to create a driving emancipation of a track.
On the 28th May “ARROW“‘s music video directed by McDermott will appear on The Irrepressibles website and youtube. Available also on this day as a download from Itunes and Amazon internationally. On this date The Irrepressibles will also announce the release date of “NUDE” on their website and pre-orders for this will go on sale.”
I told you it was good news :P
And last but not least, here are Arrow’s lyrics from The Irrepressibles FB page :)
“When you were the age 15 they shot the arrow at you…
You put that arrow in…
became an angel too…
But you were proud to be you…
When you made a pact with him…
a secret that you’d keep…
That you’d forget that sin…
could be so warm, so free!
That you could find such release.
My dear St Sebastian, in every breath we complete….
The meaning of our truth…
the meaning of our design…
That I could be a son…
and someone’s son I’d find…
To be the one, to be the one, man, man of mine.
From a boy, from a son, into the man, man of mine.
E-oh e-oh, e-oh e-oh, he’ll sow his seeds into mine,
and we will grow, and we will grow just as our bodies entwine.
E-oh e-oh, e-oh e-oh!
We wouldn’t fail but be anything else but real.”
