Emerging U.K. post punk outfit NAUT will be releasing a brand new full length, ‘Hunt,’ on February 24, 2022 via Season of Mist, making it the band’s debut to the label! The band is now sharing the second single, “Damocles,” along with a music video! The clip can be found at THIS LOCATION.
NAUT comments, “With this third single from ‘Hunt,’ we wanted to demonstrate the other sounds that influence our music, outside of the hard rock and post-punk. ‘Damocles’ is a sprawling, slithering slow-build of a track, taking as much influence from the new romantics as it does gothic rock. It wasn’t a conscious decision to make the song take this shape, instead we trusted our instincts and followed them to what we consider new ground for the band. Ground that we will no doubt return to in future.
The video’s use of projected images blasted across a landscape marred by the pursuit of all that glitters, who’s lights shine in the night like car headlights, quite literally make us a part of the city we call home. Filmed in the freezing cold January night, the creation process of this video perfectly reflects the song’s message of a cold and uncaring world, one in which we must create our own fire and tread carefully, lest we fall from our path. One misstep and the blade swings free.”
Pre-orders for ‘Hunt’ are now live HERE and the album can be pre-saved on streaming services HERE.
