U.K. darkwave act Beautiful Machines have unveiled their new single “Baum Baum” today.

The song, which can be seen below, was inspired by the act’s discovery that thousands of unexploded World War II bombs were still present in Berlin. The band further explained the song’s meaning:

“During WWII, German military transmitted encoded messages with a device called an Enigma machine, which was said to have a code impossible to break. At the same time, the story of Babel explains the origins of the multiplicity of languages. Today, people live in these thought bubbles, finding digital tribes that support and reinforce whatever we think and believe, creating information silos. So, dialogue, in some sense, between people with differing opinions is becoming scarcer, which can ultimately lead to complete breakdown in communication, disinformation and programmed behavior - perhaps even war if we aren’t careful.”

“Baum Baum,” which is out in digital services, stems from Beautiful Machines’ forthcoming album Singularity, which will be released this summer via Republic of Music.

This summer, Beautiful Machines will be supporting OMD on their Greatest Hits tour. Tour dates and tickets can be found here.
