After a landmark 12 months for Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, who released their debut album Hope Downs to worldwide critical acclaim in June 2018 – Sub Pop is excited to reveal new music from the Melbourne band in the form of single, “In the Capital.” Available digitally and on a limited edition 7-inch alongside a B-side titled “Read My Mind.”
Rolling Blackouts C.F.’s Fran Keaney describes how “In the Capital” came together: “I first had the idea for the melody and some of the lyrics when I was swimming. It’s taken a while to finish the song, to make it feel like the initial feeling. I can’t neatly describe it, but something like connection despite distance. I was thinking about transience and water and death and big cities and fishing towns and moon river.”

Had to wait a bit to get this one but boy oh boy… so good. Harmonics, layers, catchy riffs, feathery angelic vocals. This band is such a wonderful group! Good luck with touring and stay safe! turbineguy

A great album with a fun punchy beat the strokes, but with a more lo-fi quality that is clean enough to let you every instrument loud and clear. vie-rus
