The new song is inspired by Albarn’s love of South America, and named after P
alacio Salvo, a 1920s building in the Uruguayan capital of Montevideo.
Alongside the new track, Albarn has also shared a live performance video as pa
rt of his ongoing ‘Sublime Boulevards – Performance Films’ series.
Listen to the new track and watch the performance video below:
This is the fourth track to be shared from ‘The Nearer The Fountain, More Pur
e The Stream Flows’, following the title track, ‘Polaris’, ‘Particles’ an
d ‘Royal Morning Blue’ – all of which also received performance videos alon
g with their releases.
The full album is due to land next month, marking Albarn’s first release on T
ransgressive after signing to the label in June.
Speaking to NME ahead of the album’s release, Albarn expounded on how it was
conceptualised as a way to lift him out of the “storms” of the outside world
and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
“I just felt like the beginning of this year was so grim and I had to do some
thing to lift me out of those, I wouldn’t call doldrums, but storms – those
terrible north wind storms that you get down by the sea in Devon sometimes,”
he explained.
Albarn performed a “spectral, minimalist showcase” of his new album at the E
nd Of The Road festival last month, with NME reviewer Jordan Bassett praising
his set for “reaffirm[ing] just how restlessly innovative he’s been since th
e heady days of Britpop”.
