SeeYouSpaceCowboy have followed last month’s “Chewing The Scenery” single with “Rhythm and Rapture,” a collaboration with their upcoming tourmate nothing,nowhere., whose new album VOID ETERNAL also features a song with SeeYouSpaceCowboy. “Rhythm and Rapture” finds SeeYouSpaceCowboy going in a 2000s-style dance-punk direction, as singer Connie Sgarbossa explains:
This song was created out of a desire to mix ’00s dancey indie rock like Foals, Cut Off Your Hands, and Bloc Party with a post-hardcore sound. We wanted to create a song in a style we’ve never done before that really reflects the variety of what we grew up listening to. Outside of just nostalgia, wanted to make something that was more focused on being dancey and fun like parts we had all the way back in the Songs For The Firing Squad era, but with less dissonance and more embracing the joy of simplicity. Even though it sounds like a wild departure it has its roots in stuff we have done with SYSC in the past, just expanded and with a different flavor.
