Unknown Mortal Orchestra share new single
Unknown Mortal Orchestra have share “Not In Love We’re Just High,” the newest song off their album Sex & Food, out April 6th via Jagjaguwar. The song examines relational confusion induced by drugs (or simply mania). The couple at the center of the song realize that they’re not actually in love, they are indeed simply high, and how a realization that may seem sad on its surface could actually be quite liberating and euphoric. The tension of the song’s chaotic introduction is given relief by the gorgeous repeated Wurlitzer chords that make up the backbone of the song. The song’s steady build adds to the ecstatic feeling of liberation born from this epiphany.
