Eccentric Alt-Rock Group Superorganism Share Latest Teaser “Into The Sun” From Upcoming Full-Length

Superorganism have revealed the last teaser before the full record is unleashed, the alt-rock-channelling “Into The Sun”, featuring legendary Japanese actor and musician Gen Hoshino as well as cameos from Stephen Malkmus and Pi Ja Ma. A bouncy, laidback tune about a fruit fly – yes, you read that right – the catchy melody and infectious chorus make the track an instant soft-bop. 

Talking about the song, Harry says “The whole record is all about combining different worlds and scales, so it was a real thrill to be able to mix Gen [Hoshino] into a track with Malkmus and Pi Ja Ma. It’s a carefree song, somewhat about being in your own bubble, so bringing those French, American, and Japanese artists into that world reconnects the SuperO universe with these other bubbles – a bit of a multiverse!” Orono adds: “It all came together super naturally, a cute little lovebug song moment”

The video for “Into The Sun” was directed by AEVA, with 2D animation, illustration & compositing by Neirin Best, 3D animation by Nicholas Barnes and concept by Superorganism.

A colourful addition to the song, Harry comments that “the video for “Into The Sun” stemmed from the lyric about being a fruit fly, watching the world go by, whilst nature and time flow by around you. We liked the idea that the seed planted by one person can grow into a tree that is enjoyed by another, and that the fruit of that tree provides the seed of the next. Gen Hoshino as a fly buzzing around cracks me up too.”

Check out the video – from the eyes of a fruit fly – for yourself, and stay tuned for the July 15th release of Superorganism’s second album, World Wide Pop.
