The Dharma Chain Releases New Single and Video “RED RED RED RED RED”
ied in the statement above, with the bright and echo-laden guitar strums dancing around the gruff tones of the bass. The vocals, delivered in a borderline catatonic manner, teeter between nonchalance and madness, especially during the ‘I see red’ refrain in the chorus as the drums shift from a linear motorik beat to a more dynamic ride/hi-hat pattern. The track culminates in an explosive finale where the band transitions into a fluid, noisier state by slightly increasing the tempo and adding flourishes to the previously rigid instrumentation, encapsulating a deliberate expression of dissent.
Aligning with the song title, the music video predominantly features varying shades of red. Throughout the video, clips of the band performing are overlaid and edited with quick, heavily saturated liquid shapes and distorted sections, creating a kaleidoscopic yet eerie visual that complements the song’s ominous psychedelic vibe. “RED RED RED RED RED” marks The Dharma Chain’s debut single from their upcoming sophomore album, ‘Some Kind of Pure State’, set to release on June 5th via Spinda Records (in collaboration with Le Cèpe Records, Clostridium Records, Echodelick Records, and Dirty Filthy Records). The album is described as a documentation of transformation influenced by the disorienting nature of change, covering themes of love, addiction, political currents, and the pursuit of meaning in everyday life.
