Nouveau Arcade return with a dark alternative rock single in ‘Run Boy Run’that pushes into their heaviest territory yet and showcasing the act’s diversity, delivering elements of alternative rock, industrial metal, and cyberpunk, with a dash of dubstep for the perfect blend of genres to satisfy musical cravings.
‘Run Boy Run’ pulls from the duo’s earlier electro-rock roots featuring synths, thrashing guitars, and provocative lyrics accentuated by a strong vocal performance. The track also features a heavy rhythmic performance from renowned Pendulum drummer KJ Sawka, giving it a turbulent futuristic edge.
The song is a commentary on constantly living in a state of fear from being bombarded with news and misinformation.
“We are hit by a daily onslaught of new ideas, fear-inducing stories, and misinformation. Our limbic brain has a fight, flight, freeze response, and organizations take advantage of this by continually highlighting threats using tone, wording, and visuals to keep us grounded in a constant state of fear,” stated Nouveau Arcade.
“We have to be mentally cognisant and tough in order to deal with what’s happening in society. We must be intentional in taking back our sense of peace, calming ourselves, guiding our own sentiments, choosing what goes in and out of our minds, and staying grounded in our values.”
