Sorry keeps making strange and wonderful music that surprises fans everywhere. The British band recently released songs that sample Tony Basil and Guided By Voices. Their newest track called Jive creates a slow burning musical experience that feels like a fever dream.

The song starts with a bouncing metronome sound and recorded conversations. Everything stops for a moment when singer Asha Lorenz describes a sad situation about birds not singing and people staring. She paints a picture of feeling unwanted and judged by others around her.

The beat returns and layers of odd sounds build up throughout the track. Piano notes sound lonely and guitar strings make bold patterns. Broken vocal effects and drum hits create a ghostly atmosphere that grows stronger over time.

The main part of the song expresses a simple but desperate wish to dance and move freely. Lorenz wants to shake her body and jive but feels stuck moving the wrong way. The music sounds like someone trying to escape from sinking sand.

Sorry will perform at Glastonbury Festival after releasing this experimental piece. The band described Jive as a dance between different choices people make. Their statement about the song uses random words and images that match the dreamy confusion of the music itself.
