Wicketkeeper have released their new single Something I’ve Never Seen, taken from their upcoming sophomore album Zambroni.
“I love the lackadaisical groove to this song. The tempo and Ryan’s laid back bendy lead lines really informed the lyrics,” says Simon Morley. “It explores existentialism and the choices we make: choices of when to take action, and when to accept that what will be will be. All the language around that scenario seems quite negative. ‘To succumb’, ‘to surrender’, ‘give in’, but really I think there’s a lot to be said about not trying to change things out of your control. At this point I realise I sound like a climate change denier, that’s not what I’m talking about! I just like the idea of a call to inaction.”
Zambroni is due for release on 22nd September 2023 via Umpire Records, available to pre-order HERE.
