Hailing from Cardiff and formed in 2018, Red Telephone presents their latest video, Wanna Sleep Tonight. This track is the final single from Red Telephone’s debut album, Hollowing Out, which was released in March. Lyrically, it delves into the feeling of suffocation caused by the modern media vacuum, where people find themselves consumed by the relentless and overwhelming news cycle. Sound-wise, the track boldly experiments with new wave and synth-pop, landing somewhere in between Soft Cell, Yello, Grace Jones, and Gary Numan. It’s a dramatic and unconventional musical journey that may appeal to those who appreciate a different perspective.
Last but not least, the song’s video is a compelling one.
