Primal Scream have shared a new single called ‘Deep Dark Waters’ – you can listen to it below.The brooding track is the second preview of the band’s 12th studio album ‘Come Ahead’ (their first full-length project in eight years), which will be released on November 8 via BMG (pre-order here).Frontman Bobby Gillespie delivers a cautionary tale on the song, warning that “all systems are failing” as the ship veers far off course. “We go like cattle to the slaughter/ To the slaughter,” he adds.Elsewhere, Gillespie refers to “echoes from the past” and “fear[s] the worst shall surely find us“.Per a press release, ‘Deep Dark Water reflects “the dark undercurrent of our times” but offers hope that “there is still time to change course”.
The sinister feel of the single is juxtaposed with a smattering of light flamenco guitars.Speaking about the track, Gillespie explained: “‘Deep Dark Waters’ is influenced by the writings of Franco ‘Bifo’ Berardi.
It contains a warning from history. ‘Those who do not learn from the past are condemned to repeat it’.”The technicolour official music video for the song was directed by renowned filmmaker and director Douglas Hart, whose connections with Gillespie go back to The Jesus And Mary Chain.Hart played drums in the band and contributed to their 1985 debut album, ‘Psychocandy’.
He has also made videos with Primal Scream since 1991. Watch the ‘Deep Dark Waters’ visuals above.Primal Scream announced the forthcoming ‘Come Ahead’ last month with lead single ‘Love Insurrection’.
