Abundantly fun and energetic new alt pop single ‘Boring’ is anything but what its title assumes. The song is Garvie‘s latest release, and a thumping funky pop one at that. The anthemic indie pop stomper is tongue-in-cheek and its lyrics show a brutal honesty that most people can relate to, don’t we all secretly worry that we’re boring sometimes?
“There’s always that person at a party that you don’t want to get stuck chatting to, and sometimes think it might be me. I was always told that if you’re bored, then you’re boring – so when you’re telling a dull story, you’re bringing everyone else down too. It’s almost infectious, which is the idea that birthed a lot of these lyrics – that and What We Do In The Shadows, obviously.”
His hyperactive and irreverent charm stands out on his latest single, this searing and chaotically organised track is relatable and a true earworm. The gameboy-style synths make not just ‘Bored’, but all of Garvie’s discography stand out and make this an artist not easily influenced by others! Pay attention, this one’s worth listening to.
