It’s the first new music from TV Priest since the release of their debut album Uppers at the start of this year.
TV Priest have shared their Lifesize single, the band’s contribution to volume six of Sub Pop’s Singles Club.
“Lifesize is about the worship of the ‘strong man’ image often present in our political and cultural discourse,” Charlie Drinkwater says.
“One where the patriarchal underpinnings of our society and political structure goes unchallenged. After a particularly grueling year, when people have looked to leaders for strength, we’ve found instead empty gestures and contempt. (‘Talk like a salesman, walks like the Pope.’) We don’t need more macho bravado; society needs empathy and compassion.”
Meanwhile, TV Priest will start a tour of the UK and Europe at Ipswich Sound City on October 1st.
