Brighton art-rock band Youth Sector have revealed their new single “Free Parking“ and its accompanying video.
The track features on the upcoming EP ‘Quarrels‘, produced and mixed by Matt Peel, which will hit the stores on June 16 via Dance To The Radio. Pre-order it here.
Speaking about it, Youth Sector said:
“This one comes from the bones of an old song that got started years ago but it wasn’t quite there. In all its iterations though, the song has always been about the fear of getting old and boring. The “four miles, five miles for free parking” line refers to those dull exchanges grumbling about how far you had to go to find somewhere to park.”
“In the final version, the metaphor took a life of its own and morphed into a surreal town planning session where I deal with the logistical issues of finding parking for the residents of a toy village: “these plastic people’s plastic permits only work in the week/how will they meet their plastic pals if they can’t park on the cheap?”
