- While on their latest Asian tour, Brooklyn-based band Blue Foundation performed a new song, “Punk Rock,” live in front of 45,000 people. The delicately ephemeral and electronically-charged track will eventually feature vocals from Erika Spring of Au Revoir Simone and will be part of the four-track live EP that the band plans to release on June 15th via their own Dead People’s Choice Records. Coming to life for the first time in Zhangbei, China, the song is about the band’s creator Tobias Wilner and his trip to attend a friend’s band’s concert in Copenhagen, Wilner’s hometown. The lyrics contain, “I went to see you play a gig in May. Your band was great and so were you, and we screamed louder, louder, louder…”
Premiering today on BlackBook are both the video of the live performance and the track “Punk Rock” itself. The video’s imagery is fleeting and short-lived, and hence an unadulterated manifestation of the song’s ephemeral core. We see Wilner and bandmates passing cigarettes backstage, toying around in hotel rooms, and kicking it at kitschy gas stations, with all imagery filmed in black and white. Cuts of the notably desolate Chinese landscape build an intriguing paradox between the standard chaos of a Western music concert and the striking sparseness, and odd beauty, of Zhangbei.
