Watch Womb's Video For New Single 'Sometimes'
Sibling sonic collective Womb saturate our senses with 'Sometimes', a sublime new audio-visual release heralding the Aotearoa trio of Cello Forrester, Haz Forrester, and Georgette Brown's forthcoming album One Is Always Heading Somewhere — out in full on 14th March via Flying Nun Records. Oceanic synth textures, chiming guitars and carefully deployed sound design elements coalesce into rushing waves of emotion and percussive power, as Cello repeats "It's been a long time" with deeply felt, mantra-like fervor.
Initially sparked by a poem by Ocean Vuong (Someday I’ll Love Ocean Vuong), the lyric video for 'Sometimes' was created by Haz and made with support from NZ On Air, presenting a monochrome portrait of moody coastal landscapes whizzing past and around the viewer, overlaid with poetic visual design elements. Written, performed, and produced by the group, and mixed by De Stevens at Roundhead Studios, preorder the vinyl LP edition of Womb's third studio long player HERE, and experience their transportive latest song below...
"'Sometimes' was formed across Te Aro, Whanganui, Whakatū, and Tāmaki Makaurau – incorporating Georgette’s thundery drums from both the E-mu Drumulator and kit and a synth line Haz had worked on prior. It felt significant to create and record this song across four different places in Aotearoa, which to us resonates with the transitory spirit of the song." — Womb
'One Is Always Heading Somewhere' is out on Friday 14th March, digitally and on clear vinyl LP via Flying Nun Records — preorders available HERE.
