KEN Mode is now streaming their slow-as-hell new single “Unresponsive.” Vocalist Jesse Matthewson said the song directly deals with horrible nightmares he began having at the start of the pandemic, all written as a storm slowly rolled in.
“At this phase of the pandemic I had begun having dreams about my partner leaving me and my family dying, probably five nights a week, for several months. I sat there, writing the lyrics to this one while listening to a rolling storm come in, that never seemed to actually reach a crescendo. It all felt too apt for the way everything had been feeling for the last year at that point.”
KEN Mode will release their new record Null on September 23. The record was recorded and mixed by Andrew Schneider (Cave In, Unsane), and is the first to feature multi-instrumentalist Kathryn Kerr. Pre-orders are available here. You can also catch KEN Mode on tour with Frail Body at one of the dates below.
