On their new song, and first track to be released from their as-yet unnamed second album, Fanfarlo sound tense. You would be; following up an album of bellicose indie-pop gems that was much-loved by all those who heard it is a tough task. On “Replicate” the Londoners have taken the same ingredients – piano, violin, delicate vocals – but have made them fraught, sharp and tight rather than soaring or melodious. It’s a change that may perturb fans on first listen, but I’m sure it will be something they will come around to.
Check out the song and Alex Southam-directed video below, and stay tuned for more news of their upcoming album, which they report is finished though they are not ready to announce it yet.
