Bad Sounds return with new single 'Sympathetic Vibrations'

Having kept themselves out of the public eye for the majority of 2019, Bad Sounds have now returned with their first piece of new material of the year.

The new single 'Sympathetic Vibrations' is the duo's first release since their much-loved 2018 debut album 'Get Better', and sees them continue the bright and uplifting psych-pop we love them for.

Speaking about their new offering, they added, "Obviously good and bad feelings can be kind of contagious, and I guess the theme is how people can affect each other in that way. For us it’s about not wanting to pull someone into a negative space when they're trying to pull you out of one, and vice versa. In a way it's kind of our take on 'don't kill my vibe' but also us saying 'I don't wanna kill yours either'. It might mean you’re a sociopath if you don’t relate to it. So there’s some incentive to like it."
