Tonight, the Show Me The Body\/Jesus Piece\/Scowl\/Zulu tour<\/a> touches down in Richmond. Reports from final night time\u2019s Philly opener have been large, and I’ll let you know what, I’m prepared<\/em> for this shit. I want<\/em> it. A bunch of the bands on that tour have new music popping out, and LA hardcore avengers Zulu have simply hit us with a brand new track.<\/p>\n Next month, Zulu will launch their full-length debut A New Tomorrow<\/em>. I’ve heard it, and it\u2019s large. We\u2019ve already posted the large stompers \u201cFakin\u2019 Tha Funk (You Get Did)<\/a>\u201d and \u201cWhere I\u2019m From<\/a>,\u201d the latter of which options Soul Glo\u2019s Pierce Jordan and Playytime\u2019s Obioma Ugonna. The band\u2019s newest single \u201cWe\u2019re More Than This\u201d could be very totally different. It\u2019s not hardcore in any respect. It\u2019s not even rapcore. It\u2019s only a straight-up rap track, with guitarist Dez Yusuf rapping extraordinarily nicely over the band\u2019s laid-back reside instrumentation. Here\u2019s what Yusuf says about it:<\/p>\n When we first began writing for the document, Anaiah and I had bounced the thought of perhaps doing a little jazz or R&B songs and placing some raps on the document. I do know Satchel and Anaiah had jammed out some totally different concepts that I hadn\u2019t actually been current for. We had been truly ending our tour with Sasami after I first heard the music for \u201cWe\u2019re More Than This.\u201d We had been within the van at a relaxation cease, and Anaiah performed it off a video of him and Satchel jamming. It simply hit me all immediately. <\/p>\n I didn\u2019t assume a lot past the lyrics of \u201cmust I only share my pain,\u201d which is a operating theme all through the album. But it\u2019s ironic as a result of I am going ahead with sharing glimpses of ache and trauma, however that\u2019s actually the setup to point out the issues I\u2019ve (we\u2019ve) change into regardless of that ache. This is mostly a track of resilience and encouragement. Saying that we will nonetheless be greater than the tropes which are placed on us. That we’re greater than commodified variations of our trauma.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Dez Yusuf co-wrote the minimal however placing video for \u201cWe\u2019re More Than This\u201d with singer Anaiah Lei and videographer Tyler Bradberry. Watch it under.<\/p>\n A New Tomorrow<\/em> is out 3\/3 on Flatspot Records<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n
