Kele has shared a brand new single, ‘Someone To Make Me Laugh’.
The observe is the third single to be taken from the Bloc Party frontman’s upcoming solo album ‘The Flames Pt. 2’, which is about to reach on March 24 through KOLA Records/!K7.
‘Someone To Make Me Laugh’ was one of many first songs written for the brand new album.
“In its simplest form it’s about looking back at one’s life and trying to fight the cynicism that seems to be taking hold.” stated Kele. “Although the song is mined from painful memories, ultimately it is about combating loneliness in one’s life.”
Check the observe out beneath:
‘Someone To Make Me Laugh’ follows earlier singles ‘Vandal’ and ‘True Love Knows No Death’.
Kele’s new album will function the follow-up to 2021’s ‘The Waves pt. 1‘, which was written and recorded throughout lockdown.
“I always knew that I would find a way out of that feeling, and I always knew I was going to make a response to The Waves”, he stated in a press launch.
“Fire is powerful, it is both creation and destruction and I wanted that tension to somehow be reflected in the music,” he continued. “The sound of being consumed by our desires, of feelings burning so intensely that they literally burn out.”
He added: “Like The Waves it was important that all the sounds of the record were made by my electric guitar. Writing and recording a record within these parameters has forced me to become more creative as a musician, from the looped ambient textures to the brittle drum machine rhythms. it’s all made by my guitar and my loop pedals, and that’s how it will be performed.”
Bloc Party are set to open for Paramore on their UK and Ireland tour in April, which would be the latter band’s first look within the UK since 2018. They will even accompany Paramore on the North American leg of the ‘This Is Why’ tour.
