They say a change is as good as a holiday, and for Melbourne’s Banks Arcade, a hypnotic diversion is just what the doctor ordered with their brand new single “Change,” out today via UNFD.
Watch the video here.
It serves as the second new Banks Arcade single for 2023 and follows the recent blazing track “Worship the Internet.”
“Change” offers a glamorous, dark, and downright scintillating stylistic pivot from the Melbourne group, alongside a brand new music video.
With lush textures, undulating beats, and seductive vocals set against sharp and glossy production, “Change” flits between simmering verses and tempestuous choruses as vocalist Joshua O’Donnell declares, “Please just walk away / Safe to fight another day / I don’t want you to stay tonight / But you could change my mind.”
“Change discusses an unhealthy obsession with success, and a fleeting relationship driven by lust that is held back because of it,” the band offers about the track.
A band that always wanted to make history, Banks Arcade bring passion and potent execution to their myriad of influences and creative ideas. Formed over a shared love of music with a razor-sharp avant-garde aesthetic, Banks Arcade have teetered on modernity, their gaze ever-fixed just beyond the horizon via their flourishing sonic wiles. From their 2018 debut EP Endnote to its 2020 follow up Fever Dreams, the group’s head-turning singles like “Sick” and “Drown” have gone on to amass over a million individal streams, while their explosive single “Chosen” was chosen by Ubisoft as the official theme song of the Rainbow Six Siege Oceanic Nationals in 2022.
Releasing their full-length Future Lovers in 2022, an LP initially devised as a concept album that evolved into a vessel of personal self-discovery, Banks Arcade cemented their future-facing trademark style while also turning heads courtesy of their emphatic soundscapes, searing metal and hip-hop additions.
