Broods New Track "Mother & Father" Is Darkly Menacing, But We Still Love Our Parents

Seriously though, this is scary.

New Zealand may be churning out a lot of pop stars this year (hi Lorde!), but Broods has remained relatively low-key and musically different after releasing an EP this past December. However, the band is now gearing up for a new album in August through Capitol (US) and Polydor Records (UK), releasing the track “Mother & Father” as a summer sneak peek.

“Mother & Father” truly makes you want to hug singer Georgia Nott. Prepare for a serious case of The Feels because it’s strewn lyrically with the What Ifs we all combat in life. A low cry, synth-based beat trails along, creating perfect unison that is reminiscent of the brother-sister bond that created this band. While the feeling of uncertainty reigns throughout the song, there is no doubt that Broods is bound to wake up feeling ten times better after their album release because this is a promising start to something new.
