Palm (palmmlap) are back and better than ever with 'Feathers,' their first new release in four years, and the lead single from their forthcoming album 'Nicks and Grazes':
Palm has released their first new music in over four years today with “Feathers.” The track is the lead single from the Philly-based art-rockers’ forthcoming album,Citing Japanese pop music, dub and footwork as influences on the album, Palm’s new track meshes their more recent sources of inspiration with that of artists such as Glenn Branca, Captain Beefheart and Sonic Youth, who initially contributed to the band’s formation over a decade ago.
‘Feathers’ went through a few drafts—I was initially playing a plodding line on the bass guitar but something about the arrangement wasn’t working,” recalls bassist Gerasimos Livitsanos. “It was only once I switched to bass synth that there was a strong enough center for the atonal guitar and synth pads to make sense. The first one we tracked in the studio, ‘Feathers’ became an undanceable dance song at the last minute.
The single is accompanied by an austere, black-and-white, medieval-inspired music video directed by Daniel Brennan. Opening with a duel and winding its way through brushes with the supernatural and an archaic burial, the video speaks to the band’s all-encompassing artistic approach.
