Formed near Dublin in 2016, modernlove. is made up of Barry Lally (vocalist/guitarist), Graham Fagan (guitar), Daniel Rooney (bass) and Cian McCluskey (drums).
The bands versatility sees them raise through topics of small-town turmoil, coming-of-age, big nights and young love. Giving their fans a soundtrack for their lives. modernlove. continues with their sold-out debut UK tour this November.
'Take Me Far Away' sees modernlove. venture into their indie-punk propensities. Scaling the song up for arena shows, it showcases their relatable narratives with angst towards small-town thinking and the view of bigger opportunities in the 'city'. The single was produced and mixed by Tom Leach (Lewis Capaldi).
Talking on the single, modernlove. explain;
"The name of the song is sort of a dead giveaway for its subject matter. It’s about dealing with mental health struggles while also being stuck in the repetitive monotony of small-town life. It’s a feeling I think everyone can relate to especially after covid. Every aspect of the song is just us venting our frustrations from the lyrical content to the aggressive distortion of the guitar and bass. Hopefully people can take some comfort in knowing that they are not alone in feeling trapped in their own heads and there are always ways to feel better and escape.”
Accompanying 'Take Me Far Away', the music video matches their infectious energy.
(It was produced by the band’s regular visual collaborators Greasy Waffle FIlms.)
