about

Unselected is the third single from electronical-indie Welsh music act New Wolves. With 80s clean beats and rasping synth underneath a floating, dreamlike melody, building to an inverted waterfall of sweeping strings and melodies in the chorus, the song sits somewhere unlikely between Hot Chip and Elliot Smith.

Lyrically, deals with the current right wing flood, and where the rest of us fit in.

lyrics

Her name is an unknown song
In the end there's the just the two of us
To listen

Your hum is a silent wave
That shakes the air apart completely
No don't flinch

You are complete like a scene from a burning film
What's under the dawns ash stain?
Just a still from another life

We are sown tight, we are the unselected of our kind
We write in the darkest of type

You are laying on the ground
Face the sun with us below you
Sunken eyed

Breath out
Let the cells come loose
Shake the air apart completely
Become the night
