[Pick Of The Week] The Wldlfe – “Saturn”

Indie-pop trio, The Wldlfe, are gearing up for the release of their forthcoming album, Revolver, on October 2 and the single roll outs have been nothing but top notch!

New offering, “Saturn,” features the band’s signature dreamlike and synth-drenched goodness set to the theme of dissecting the aftermath of a love gone wrong.

The day we wrote ‘Saturn’ was a day without AC in the dead of summer,” vocalist Jansen Hogan recalls. “Needless to say, there was quite a bit of willpower in this session to bring it together. However, the song we were writing ended up being a poetic distraction. We had brought a lyrical idea to LA that at the time was simply, ‘if i could steal the ring of Saturn and put it on your hand.’ It felt like there was something waiting for us there. The idea of ‘Saturn’ naturally felt sci-fi and more experimental for us and led us down a road sonically that we haven’t really tried yet. I remember jokingly repeating the, ‘I could’ve been everything you wanted if I was your man’ line and all of us looking up at each other and being like, ‘That’s actually cool for this.’ We’re particularly proud of this one because we tried something out of the ordinary for us and landed on something special.”
