JOE’s Song Of The Day #790 – tribal dance ‘You Can’t Swim’

‘You Can’t Swim’ is the first single off tribal dance’s debut EP.

From forming initially to perform at house parties, to being hailed as "Dublin math-rock revival" and being revered by critics, experimental three-piece, tribal dance, are turning heads due to their abrasive and unconventional sound. This is a band on the up and tribal dance have built up a reputation for their manic and unpredictable live shows combining techno inspired noise/krautrock with upbeat chaotic dance rhythms. Both the lyrics and video explore the contrast between unrealistic expectations and reality. "We wanted to try and emulate the perfect one shot video that still had elements of human error to make it less perfect and more real," lyricist Adam Smyth said. "What you get is this imperfect linear one shot take which highlights that the human aspect to making art sometimes aims to be ‘too perfect’ and can sometimes be unnatural or artificial." https://youtu.be/ccxyLnalkDM Clip via tribal dance The band will be appearing at Knockanstockan Festival 2019 and you can check out details via their Facebook page right here.
