Rock and roll never dies and the Springbok Nude Girls are back with a new single this week that proves that this statement is still very valid! The group is ready to embark on their new musical chapter as they drop ‘Emerging Submarines’, the lead single off their anticipated new album ‘Partypocalypse’ which premieres on the 3rd of September.
The new single effortlessly reminds fans why the group is hailed as South Africa’s premier hard rock band.
Drummer Francious Kruger explains that the idea for this song started obscurely, but became the perfect track to lead into their new era. “[I’m] not sure how this one started. I Just remember that I struggled with it until I started playing the ‘goema shuffle’ vibe. Then when Theo added the soaring guitar, the song just went next level.”
Vocalist Arno Carsten adds that “There always one track on an album for me that stands above the rest. On ‘Afterlife Satisfaction’ it was Grrr, on ‘Peace Breaker’ – ‘Gang Gang’ and on this album its ‘Emerging Submarines’.”
The new track arrives alongside a music video which was shot, directed, and edited by renowned artist and sculptor Lionel Smit on location at his studio is a visual explosion which matches the intensity and mood of the song perfectly.
“Spending a day in Lionel Smit’s amazing studio was exciting. We played through the songs a few times and they quickly got the shots they wanted. Always a pleasure working with Lionel and his team.” Say Francious. Arno adds, “I think the video gives insight into how it feels to perform the song very successfully.”
