Punk clashes with cinematic Dark Wave on Rotten Mind’s new single “Drifter”. The track is the second single from the group’s upcoming, fifth studio album Unflavored, to be released on March 18th, 2022, via Lövely Records. Energetic, yet full of gloomy melodies, “Drifter” is one of the most straightforward tracks on Rotten Mind’s new album.
Johan Sverredal from the band comments on ”Drifter”:
Drifter is a song about being on the run, but it was also written with a nostalgic and melancholic feeling. It brings more of an up-tempo punk beat compared to our previous single “Serpent Eyes”, while not neglecting the feeling of 80s new wave. The single captures the grand sound of Turbinen studio, where it was recorded by Kristofer Jönson.
Rotten Mind consists of Jakob Arvidsson (guitar/ vocals), Liz Panella (bass), Johan Sverredal (guitar) and Victor Nordin (drums). The band was formed in Uppsala, Sweden in 2015 and is one of the four original bands affiliated with Lövely Records. Unflavored will be their fifth studio album.
