Tropic Gold Share "The Angels Are Gone" Video — WATCH // New EP Out Now

South East England trio TROPIC GOLD have released their new EP, SICK TO DEATH OF EVERYHING, via UNFD.

Get it here. 

They've also released the video for "THE ANGELS ARE GONE."

"'THE ANGELS ARE GONE' plays on as a lyric response to the question from the end of the introduction track opening the EP, that being 'How do you feel?,'" the band says. "The track's intention was to feel like a downward spiral when your head is just wrecked and in all the wrong places, with the chorus stating 'I need a reason to stay, 'cos the angels are gone.'"

Regarding the deeply personal EP, Tropic Gold siphoned every bit of emotion the members have experienced in recent times and parlayed it into these songs, saying, "SICK TO DEATH OF EVERYTHING had everything poured into it over some really difficult times — the name sums up what was, and has been, going through our heads. It's our most honest and vulnerable body of work, and hope that people hear it and connect so they understand they aren't alone with day-to-day instability of mental health, life uncertainty, and self-loathing."

Tropic Gold offer up a thoroughly modern and moody meld of alternative, metal, pop, and electronica, cajoling their passions for a dynamic culture pool of music and production styles into a single sonic petri dish. Though originally formed in 2019, the quartet have spent years in the lab, developing their sound and strong aesthetics behind the closed doors of a bespoke, self-built multi-media studio.

The Tropic Gold method is truly hands on, with guitarist Joshua Lee handling all production and recording duties, as well as diving into the weeds on their visual curation, manning the camera and edit suite as often as the production chair. 

SICK TO DEATH OF EVERYTHING follows Tropic Gold's 2023-released What A Wonderful Experience EP via UNFD.

Pairing swathes of moody atmospherics with soaring, ear worm choruses, the band’s songs feel like they would be equally A Vibe™ pulsing across sticky, cramped dance floors as soaring atop airy arenas. Coming on like a new romantic Bring Me The Horizon or a post breakup Don Broco, who just discovered their parents copy of The Cure'sDisintegration or a 45rpm copy ofSing The Sorrow playing at 33rpm… tl;dr: Tropic Gold are as gloomy as they are catchy.  Sharing a sonic space with the likes of the aforementioned BMTH and Broco, PVRIS, (latter day) Architects, Caskets, Spiritbox's plaintive moments and even Enter Shikari (albeit on Valium), Tropic Gold are just getting started in figuring out how to weaponize their cocktail of slap and swag.

Suffolk-via-Essex trio Tropic Gold will release their new EP, SICK TO DEATH OF EVERYHING, via UNFD on March 7 Pre-save it here.

Today, they share the video for the sexy and sleek track "Holy Horror."

Watch it below.

About the song, the band enthuses, "'HOLY HORROR' refers to someone you'd do anything for at your own expense, despite how they treat you and how it affects you, because you see them as such a holy being. No matter how bad this holy person treats you, you still like it, just because they're still there, and you take it from them to keep them around, without realizing how toxic it is for yourself."

Tropic Gold Release "Maniac" Video — WATCH

Suffolk-via-Essex quartet Tropic Gold will release the What A Wonderful Experience EP, via UNFD.

Today, they share the video for "Maniac." Watch it here.

"Maniac" follows recent singles "ADRENALINE" and "DTTTH," and shines a light on "a generation of undiagnosed and mistreated mental health conditions," share the band. "The song lays out how people often think they're going insane and that they're not normal. There's a constant struggle people live with, not knowing why they feel differently to others, and 'Maniac' talks about the attempt to find the alternate inner version of yourself that feels hopeless."

Teasing What A Wonderful Experience, the band explains that the title "can be interpreted in so many ways; it's our most cohesive release yet and we're eager to see how people relate to the songs in different, individual ways."

Tropic Gold Sign to UNFD + Share "Adrenaline" Video

Suffolk-via-Essex quartet Tropic Gold have announced their signing to UNFDwith the video for the huge new single "Adrenaline." The track was exclusively premiered on Monday night’s BBC Radio 1 Rock Show, with sit-in host and long-term supporter Alyx Holcombe enthusing, "That was so incredible!"

Watch the video below.

"'Adrenaline' unravels the uncontrollable feeling of not being able to get through a day without an unreasonably positive event occurring," shares the band. "It vocalizes how having a day without an extreme positive lift can result in intense lows, similar to withdrawal symptoms. The lyrics are written from a 'talking to myself' perspective, with vocals representing an inner monologue highlighted throughout the song."

Tropic Gold continue, "The excitement of signing with UNFD is undeniably life changing. We are beyond grateful for the shared enthusiasm UNFD have in the future of Tropic Gold, and are not holding back on making the most of what this partnership can create. The shared ambition for bringing the vision of Tropic Gold to life has allowed us to expand our team for the first time, and UNFD have made us feel lovingly welcomed and part of a family immediately. We can't wait to invite the world to join the experience."
