We’re delighted to premiere ‘Falling’, the new track from Romanian band PUBLIKA. Although its their first foray into the UK market, they’re very much a fixture at home, appearing on the biggest TV shows and working with multiple labels.
Sitting somewhere between Keane and Depeche Mode, Falling has this electro-rock feel about it, with winding guitar lines, melancholic descending piano figures and this dark, electro sensibility. Moreover, it has the kind of slightly anxious but ultimately satisfying melody about it, the sort that catches your ear, and doesn’t let go.
Of the track, John Ruscior, the bands lead singer, says John ‘‘When I wrote “Falling”, I had a kind of a breakdown due to a state of mind which was making me feel unsuitable to love and find myself. I believe that each of us can lose their way at some point, and depending on how strong you are inside, you can still rise! I did it by falling in love again!’’.
