Panchiko release title track of forthcoming album 'Failed At Math(s)'
British indie rock band Panchiko have unveiled the title track for their forthcoming album Failed at Math(s) today.
The song comes with an accompanying music video directed by Simon Ellis, which can be seen below. The band said this about their new single:
“‘Failed at Math(s)’ is a song about how the precursor to realising a vaguely acceptable, if still somewhat disappointing end result, is acknowledging and casting off the patterns that lead us to fail over and over (and over) again.”
Failed at Math(s) is slated for a May 5 release. The band said this about working on the long-awaited follow-up to 2000’s D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L:
"Incredibly specific conditions were cultivated in order to recreate the writing process of 20 years ago: Sat on the sofa. Surrounded by snacks. Game consoles and music machines were sampled, lyrics mumbled, and 3 chord progressions were strummed over drum loops and blips & bloops.”
The band will support the album with a trek across the United States, which begins on May 7 at The Crocodile in Seattle. For this trek, the band will be joined by Horse Jumper of Love and LSD and The Search for God.
An updated tour routing, which includes additional shows in Los Angeles and NYC, can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public right now.
