Broken Social Scene releases new album “Remember The Humans” and shares accompanying music video.
Broken Social Scene has made a triumphant return with their brand new album, “Remember The Humans,” which was released today through Arts & Crafts. This highly anticipated LP marks the band’s first album in nearly ten years and serves as a reunion with David Newfeld, the producer behind their critically acclaimed album “You Forgot It In People.”
One of the standout tracks from the album is “Only The Good I Keep,” featuring Hannah Georgas taking the lead vocals. In a typical Broken Social Scene fashion, Kevin Drew decided to step back and let Georgas shine, recognizing that she had truly brought the song to life. Georgas shared her experience of working on the track, noting that Kevin had invited her to the studio one afternoon to listen to some demos with Newfeld. She was instantly drawn to the captivating drum and piano parts of the song, which inspired her to write meaningful lyrics and melodies that reflected her teenage years. The track became a personal reflection on the difficulties she faced during adolescence and the strength that helped her overcome them.
The accompanying music video for “Only The Good I Keep” was co-directed by Drew and Jordan Allen, adding a visually stunning element to the emotional song. Fans can also look forward to the upcoming “All The Feelings Tour,” where Broken Social Scene will be hitting the road with Metric, joined by Stars as support. The tour kicks off on June 8 in Austin and will stretch across North America, Europe, and the UK, providing fans with the opportunity to experience the band’s dynamic live performances.
The title of the album, “Remember The Humans,” hints at a deeper connection and sense of humanity that runs through the tracks. This theme of returning to a more personal and intimate space is evident in the band’s decision to work with Newfeld again, bringing their journey full circle. The album serves as a reminder to cherish the human connections that shape our lives and to find strength and solace in shared experiences.
Broken Social Scene continues to deliver their signature blend of indie rock and emotional depth, intertwining personal narratives with rich musical arrangements. With “Remember The Humans,” the band invites listeners to reflect on their own experiences and memories while embracing the power of human connection. As fans eagerly devour the new album and music video, anticipation builds for the upcoming tour, where Broken Social Scene will once again captivate audiences with their electrifying performances.
