A sparkling return by Toronto indie collective fronted by Kevin Drew with cleverly, catchy, upbeat rhythmic brass and sax-infused wistful track about disappearing possibilities, and heralding their first album in nearly a decade, Remember The Humans out 8 May via City Slang / Arts & Crafts. The LP reunites the Toronto collective with producer David Newfeld, who helmed their breakthrough You Forgot It in People (2002) and self-titled 2005 album. They explain that the timing is right. That we live in an era that is overstimulated, and yet simultaneously hollowed out; deeply connected, but marked by a profound sense of dislocation. The album’s title is like a quiet alarm: a reminder not to forget the fragile, analogue beings at the centre of all the noise.
This track has a nostalgia with a musical twist – by invoking a past that has vanished, the song unexpectedly floods the present with a glow that rivals the very greatness being lamented. It is accompanied by a clever video directed by Jordan D Allen, Rachel McLean and Kevin Drew. To explore and enjoy more by Broken Social Scene, see also the other embedded links below.

To redefine here anymore
'Cause it's all gone away
Guess it's called the times

I can't need to lie here anymore
