Winter’s chill might be setting in early, but I think there’s always a place for surf rock in our lives. Hailing from the west of Eora/Sydney, The Sooks are bringing back summer vibes with their new single “Burn Me Out.”
“‘Burn Me Out’ explores the feeling of being alienated from the things around you, being disconnected from the world and feeling like time is passing by when you are stood still,” the band said in a statement. “We all get that kind of feeling of being burnt out by something or someone, and this song is sort of a tribute to that universal frustration.”
Like so many of the best songs, it came together quickly for The Sooks.
“After realising that we had studio time booked in, we thought it would be a good idea to write a single a few days beforehand,” they laughed. “So we sat with acoustic guitars and put the song together in like 20 minutes from scratch, lyrics and everything. We were heaps thrilled to be tracking up in Sonar Studios in Tuggerah with Jack Nigro. We like his work and so we knew that the song would come together just fine. After a long day of tracking all the instruments, we waited for Jack to work his magic in the mixing studio and the song was done.”
Press play on this one and you can almost forget its trackpants weather. Almost!
