Brooklyn via South Carolina band Everest Cale explore the scorched earth landscape of a post apocolyptic world with their new single “Fossils”. “Fossils” is a slow burning song, accentuating instrumental space and poignant lyrics, with slow building guitar and drums that eventually explode into lyrical hope.
Treacy wrote the song in response to Bob Dylan’s “Talkin’ World War III Blues.” But where Dylan approaches the end of days with humor and wit, Treacy and crew paint a starker picture.
“I had written the line, ‘I am the last man on Earth,’ in my songbook because I was obsessed with that concept, a man observing the aftermath of war,” Treacy says. “Dylan approached it with insightful humor. I was interested in the darker side.”
“Fossils” is part of the bands new Constellation Choir EP which is set to be released October 22nd.
