Bristolian noise-pop three-piece, Superlove have released their highly anticipated new album, follow:noise today via European label Rude Records. The ten song collection features previous singles “GO!”, “Something Good,” and “Easier” alongside a handful of new tracks, including “Overdrive“, which arrives alongside a new music video today. Watch it now below.
On the new album, Superlove shares, “We’ve realised a lot over the last year since the release of our debut album. We discovered what we wanted to lean our sound more towards and to really focus in on the basic elements and fully utilise every instrument.”
On “Overdrive”, lead vocalist and bassist Jacob Rice shares, “‘Overdrive’ is about how with our generation; everything has to be 100%. You go on Tik Tok and everything’s in your face all the time, and every time you’re on your phone you can’t avoid it. We are living with no plan of action, and our generation is going through it right now. Will I be able to ever buy a house? Will I be able to ever do the things that the older generations have done? The older generations had this plan for life, where you would get married, say your vows, buy a house, and have kids, but now everything’s so expensive. Our generation has had to loosen up a bit. If I get to own a house, that’s great, but if I don’t, I’ll make something else work.”
Unveiling the vibrant hues of their distinctive brand of noise-pop on 2022 debut album ‘Colours’, Superlove are a band focused on innovation. Marrying infectious pop hooks with brain-melting riffs and electronic influences, the Bristol trio’s first full-length release ventured into countless musical territories, transcending boundaries, and sitting outside of all boxes. Inspired by the dynamic genre-blurring tendencies of Enter Shikari and the driving rock energy of Lower Than Atlantis, since their formation in 2018 Superlove have been working feverishly towards something big, and in the summer of 2022 – they had an epiphany.
“When we played 2000 Trees last year, we played ‘Save Yourselves’ last which is a huge guitar song,” vocalist / bassist Jacob Rice explains. “We realised that the people who come to our shows want to hear riffs and big choruses. There are people who appreciate the electronic stuff that we did on ‘Colours’, and it’s cool to have that up our sleeve, but what’s more fun than a big bouncy riff? Looking out and seeing a mosh pit with people jumping around, it felt right.”
Rooted in sheer fun and authenticity, Superlove are catapulting into a new era of boundless creative joy, kickstarting with a headline tour this summer. Playing their songs in sweaty venues to roomfuls of people singing and moshing along, the trio have found their place – and now they’re ready to make it their own.
