Zach Condon alias Beirut veröffentlicht am 10. November sein neues Album Hadsel über sein eigenes Label Pompeii. Hier ist die zweite Single The Tern, über welche er Folgendes sagt:
The base of this song comes from an old Roland synthesizer and drum machine part which I had lying around from a previous Berlin session. The lyrics I improvised on the spot and finished the song off by adding layers of church organs and hand percussion. I stacked the parts high despite always being afraid of overdoing it. In the end I was confused how I had written such a seemingly positive and even hopeful song, but once I took a closer look at the lyrics, I saw the real nature of the hidden defeat and triumph of caution rather than of hope.
