Always You – “Shadow Play”

Brotherly duo Always You [Christoph and Anton Hochheim], preparing for this Friday’s release of new album Against The World, drop the final single from the project and it’s a beaut.

An examination of relationship dynamics before an imagined audience, the new tune harks back to 80’s sophisti-pop doused in a slick, contemporary sheen as syncopated synths and a modernized percussion run tell the tale. Speaking to the meaning behind the music, the band say:

Relationships are a type of performance, with specific roles that get cast and stories that get etched out and retold with time. [The song] is about love as a projection, as something very personal to a person rather than something created by two, and the dangers of copy and pasting that onto others.

Well said and well sung!
