The Lathums have unveiled their latest single, ‘Long Shadows,’ offering a profound glimpse into the emotional and expansive soundscapes of their upcoming album, Matter Does Not Define, set for release on March 7, 2025.
Clocking in at nearly five minutes, ‘Long Shadows’ departs from the conventional confines of indie pop, delivering an evocative and heavyweight composition. The track, recorded in a single take, highlights frontman Alex Moore’s raw and urgent vocal delivery, which left his bandmates awestruck.
Moore explains:
“‘Long Shadows’ is a song about deep emotional struggle and the complexities of love. I’m expressing feelings of despair, isolation, and fear of change after losing love, evoking a sense of tragic suffering. Despite the darkness, we recognise love’s enduring presence, though it casts long shadows over our life.
“The song explores the dual nature of love and its ability to both heal and hurt. Through metaphors of light, shadow, and transcendence, we find hope in embracing vulnerability and seeks freedom through love.”
‘Long Shadows,’ is out now.
