King Krule - 'If Only It Was Warmth'
King Krule builds even more excitement ahead of his new record with ‘If Only It Was Warmth’.
After the release of the brilliant single ‘Seaforth’, fans were becoming even more excited ahead of the release of the new album. King Krule (Archy Marshall) has taken this to a new level with another single which has quality in abundance.
‘If Only It Was Warmth’ will have the attention of all from start to finish. It’s a slow number which has a brilliantly atmospheric bassline driving it.
Marshall really seems to have mastered his craft, since he is able to muster up tracks that seem simple at first listen, but when you focus more attention to the individual elements, you realise the sheer intricacy of the work.
The latest single will have listeners completed fixated on what King Krule has to say. The instrumentation perfectly builds around his voice. The track has a feel of complete honesty, in that the music completely reflects the words. “I’m so disappointed in you”. Marshall’s repetition of this line, paired with the careful guitar riffs, has a real feeling of sincerity and it gives the track an edge. Fans can resonate with Marshall’s sincerity.
The track becomes the second single to precede King Krule’s upcoming record ‘Space Heavy’, which is set to be a 15 track album that fans can be excited for. The record is due to be released on the 9th of June, and it is set to be accompanied by a lengthy tour. The live dates will see King Krule perform to crowds across much of the United States, as well as the UK and Europe.
The latest single is sure to be a hit amongst fans on the upcoming tour, and it really is a number that will leave fans wanting the rest of the album’s contents right now.
King Krule is completely and utterly smashing it out the park with his recent work, and the release of his album is greatly anticipated. ‘If Only It Was Warmth’ is a brilliant track that shows off the sheer talent of King Krule.
