Floodlights Drop New Single/Video "Can You Feel It"

Naarm/Melbourne art rock/post-punk/alt band Floodlights have dropped their new single “Can You Feel It“, alongside a music video.

Launching into a new era, the band also announce their worldwide signing with [PIAS] Recordings.

Urgent guitar strokes atop a marching drum beat, as well as Louis Parsons’ commanding vocals, signal the band’s explosive return. Produced by Dan Luscombe (Courtney Barnett, Amyl and the Sniffers) and mixed by Grammy Award-winning John Congleton, “Can You Feel It” explores themes of growth, the challenges and struggles behind self-discovery, and mixed feelings on the verge of an unknown.

Update 10/7/2024: “Can You Feel It” is our new Single of the Week!

The band say:

“‘Can You Feel It’ began as an idea in Naarm/Melbourne and was shaped into a song in London. The lyrics were written in a quick burst, in one of those moments where words pour out – releasing a bottled up feeling of anticipation, excitement and fear – an act of catharsis, much like the song itself. It quickly became a key element of our live set as we toured the UK/EU over three months in 2023.”

The abstract music video, mirrors the track’s poetic musings on the universal quest for meaning. Directed by Ava Clifforth and Henry Gosper, the visual paints a story of tension, anticipation and catharsis, ending with the cataclysmic acceptance that beyond “the edge of nothing”, boundless potential awaits.
