Teenage Wrist release new song ‘Diorama’
TEENAGE WRIST have released a brand new song!
The new song, titled Diorama, is the brand new single from the Los Angeles-based rock band and follows on from their previous single, Sunshine, which was released last month.
Speaking about the song’s existential lyricism, vocalist/guitarist/bassist Marshall Gallagher says, “it’s about seeing the world through your own microscopic lens, and how all the insignificance, irony and existential dread are magnified by the technology we’ve become dependent on. We all know this feeling, looking at your phone for hours, watching everything unfold and crumble. All the tragedy and injustice outside your walls, and the feeling of utter uselessness against it. Yet life goes on and you continue existing.”
The initial idea for Diorama came about while Marshall was at producer Nat Motte’s [MAROON 5, 3OH!3] house as they made beats. “I played this weird chord/melody thing out of nowhere and when he pitch-shifted it down a whole octave, I knew it had to be a WRIST song immediately,” he explains of the dreamy tone. “From there, we kept letting really dope instrumentalists and producers add layers to it- Anthony Salazar [TEENAGE WRIST] of course with the breakbeat, Kevin McCombs [ALL TIME LOW, PAPA ROACH] chopping and reversing, Ryan from HOLY FAWN coming in with the synth assist – and it became something pretty moving.”
