The track is from the band’s upcoming sophomore album Lions and Ore
Built on post-punk rhythms, a slow-burning, tension filled approach, and a gothic, defiant edge that explores themes like being an outsider and not belonging, The House Flies‘ latest single ‘Derelict Crawl’ is an atmospheric and gritty new release that has a fierce and powerful feel to it throughout.
Whether through its more moody and quiet moments or the cathartic bursts of energy that punctuate them, there is a hefty emotional weight and depth to the sound that is underscored by the intense refrain of ‘We don’t belong”. ‘Derelict Crawl’ is a track that revels in the space that it is given to develop and sprawl over time, getting under your skin and really creating an aura that feels both liberating and decidedly dark, and the result unfolds for an anthem for anybody who feels like a misfit or is trying to find their place in an unwelcoming world.
