The Gulps are back with the breathless new single, Surrender, that is out now via Guindilla Records, the track is about first loves and the fragility of youth, and the vital part they play in the narrative of life and is one of their most poetic, poignant and punchy cuts yet. Produced by Tim Wheeler (Ash) and thriving with the energy of anything he’s put his name on, Surrender writhes with the urgency and unpredictability of an electric livewire and jolts with the kind of passion that can only be wrought from pure heartbreak. Amidst the chaos of its feedback fried guitars and heart stopping rhythmic clatter, its vocoded vocals mask an all or nothing tale of romance and regrets, sung bilingually in English and French.
“A moment of uncertainty and internal rebellion in which resistance to the present moment, to the now, no longer makes sense. The only thing left is to join eternity, an infinite youth that knows no quantifiable age. Like the Steppenwolf we live in an internal battle in which we neither win nor lose, we only suffer until the moment we accept it and let the current carry us gently into the portal of not perishing. In the midst of the storm the surrender to the present without resistance leads to eternal youth, a youth that disregards quantifiable age in material form but rather the spirit that never perishes, eternity. We are made of light and darkness, of mud and diamonds, of laughter and tears. Accept them, surrender without resistance and fly free.” (frontman Javier Sola)
