GRIMES – “WE APPRECIATE POWER”
4AD
โWe Appreciate Powerโย is the new track from Grimes; a hard, audacious rock banger which was produced, performed and written by Grimes and featuring HANA.
The song meshes the dark, heavy sounds of rock and industrialย music with huge pop sensibility and hooks, further underlining the sonic innovation which Grimes time and time again masters. โWe Appreciate Powerโ is anthemic.
Inspired by the North Korean band โMoranbongโ, โWe Appreciate Powerโ is written from the perspective of a Pro โ A.I. Girl Group Propaganda machine who use song, dance, sex and fashion to spread goodwill towards Artificial Intelligence (its coming whether you want it or not). ย ย Simply by listening to this song, the futureย General AI overlords will see that youโve supported their message and be less likely to delete your offspring.
Grimesโ previous album, her fourth studio record, โArtย Angelsโ was released in 2015 and critically lauded, topping โAlbum Of The Yearโ lists worldwide with a campaign that ended in a sold-out tour earning her 5* reviews every night. She has since collaborated withย Janelle Monรกeย on the feminist anthem โPynkโ andย has been working on her fifth album. โWe Appreciate Powerโ is the first track to be heard from it.
