Phantogram recently announced their upcoming third studio LP Three alongside the absolute monster of a lead single “You Don’t Get Me High Anymore,” which they followed up with an equally bombastic music video. Stakes are high for this new album, but Phantogram keep their winning streak going with second single “Run Run Blood.” It’s another surprisingly industrial take on the duo’s signature synth-pop, echoing the cacophonous sneer of “You Don’t Get Me High Anymore.”
Phantogram’s Josh Carter explains that the track “is about the sad state of the world we live in today. It feels like the blind leading the blind sometimes.” That translates to Carter and Sarah Barthel trading apocalyptic verses between menacing hooks that soar like vultures circling unwitting flesh. “Your world is my world now, to live and die in,” Carter apathetically spits before Barthel chimes in, “Does anybody need to breathe?” When I first heard this song, I think I forgot to do that.
