Post-hardcore rockers Acres have shared the new track ‘Talking In Your Sleep,’ taken from eagerly awaited debut album ‘Lonely World,’ which is set for release August 9th via A Wolf At Your Door Records. You can watch the new video below.
Vocalist Ben Lumber explains: “The song is about being lied to by someone who you think really cares about you. When you think everything is perfect, in reality, it’s really not. ‘Talking In Your Sleep’ is a metaphor for the words and lies subtly unraveling self-consciously.” The accompanying video was filmed in Latvia: “We wanted something that suited the emotion behind the song,” Ben continues, “raw, passionate and empty.”
‘Talking In Your Sleep’ follows the release of the album’s title track last month, which secured airplay from Radio 1 and Kerrang Radio, as well as clocking up 58K+ streams on Spotify and over 110K views for their gripping video. ‘Lonely World’ was a momentous uncovering of the band’s hard work over the past two years where they have been honing their craft, perfecting their sound, and enduring the grind of the music scene, since the release of their acclaimed 2017 EP ‘In Sickness & Health.’ The EP led to support coming from the likes of Rock Sound, Kerrang! and Metal Hammer and set them off on tours across the UK and Europe.
