Bastille
Give Me The Future (LP)
Give Me The Future, Bastille’s wildly-ambitious new album, is a tribute to tech times and a glimpse of what could be to come. Exploring both the opportunities of new technology and the dark side of lives lived online, it’s as playful as it is thought-provoking, as dystopian as it is dancefloor-friendly and as electronic as Bastille have ever been.
“Writing the songs at such a strange time, with everyone stuck at home, glued to screens, fed into the feeling that what’s real and what’s not is now difficult to discern,” says Dan. “We’re in the age of deep fake, fake news and lying world leaders. Online, you can be anyone, go anywhere. You can choose how you look, rewrite your past, behave as you like. We’re a whisker away from the technology at the heart of the album.”
