Hot Milk will release their new album, Corporation P.O.P, on June 27. In celebration of the news, the band has released the new single “90 Seconds To Midnight,” which can be streamed below. Speaking on the track, vocalist Han Mee has shared:
“The doomsday clock is nearing midnight and this frantic song sets the mood for the oncoming nuclear winter… We wanted to punch you proper in the face with this, this balls to the wall little riffy boy comes bounding at you relentlessly. Lyrically we took inspiration from 17th century philosopher Rousseau and the poet John Betjemen with his poem ‘Slough’. Rousseau set out that humanity would never be free as we create our own shackles. In this case, we’ve created our own demise. Where as Betjemens poem takes this notion of demise and laughs at it, inviting the nukes in “come friendly bombs”…. Let’s set the gaff on fire and start again.”
