Metronomy Announces New Album “Small World”, Shares New Song “It's good to be back”
British electro-pop band Metronomy announced their seventh studio album “Small World” would be released on February 18, 2022 via Because Music.
The album comprises 9-track, featuring guest appearance from Porridge Radio
It is their first album in three years since the 2019 “Metronomy Forever”.
From the album, the band unveiled a new song “It's good to be back” with an accompanying music video on October 27, 2021.
The video was directed by Jack Whiteley and Joe Wills.
Frontman Joseph Mount said of the song, “Part of me was thinking, 'what is the lamest platitude people are going to be saying coming out of the past two years?,' but at the same time, I was thinking how it will be true and how it might feel doing things again.”
He continued, “I've been remembering what it was like as a kid when I'd be sitting in the backseat of my parents' car and they'd be playing their music and I'd think 'this is awful,' but there'd be one or two songs I would like. I thought it would be fun to make that kind of album, and this is the song the kids might like. This is the 'cool' song.”- source : Apple Music
