Welsh bi-lingual trio CHROMA have released their new single, Bombs Away, that is available through streaming platforms via Alcopop! Records. The track is the latest to be taken from the band’s 2023 debut album, Ask For Angela, that was recently shortlisted for the 2024 Welsh Music Prize alongside the likes of Angharad, Gruff Rhys and Skindred.
“Since I saw My Chemical Romance in Cardiff CIA as a 14 year old kid, I’ve always wanted to write a song for teenage girls to mosh to. Bombs Away is that song. I love going to gigs and I feel like my time getting pushed around in the pit made me fall in love with heavier music. Bombs away at its core is a breakup song. It’s about that moment you begin to see the wood for the trees, with someone you’re seeing. It’s that moment you realise someone’s taken advantage of your kindness and you’re just fuming. Bombs Away is that anger and then moving on.” (vocalist Katie Hall)
CHROMA will shortly be heading off on tour in the UK this month with Goldie Lookin Chain as well as playing select headline shows, the band will also be appearing at the Welsh Music Prize awards at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium and Manchester’s Beyond The Music Festival.
