Sibensko Powerhouse

john team up with idles' adam devonshire for a scorching hot new single, which lays the path for their tremendous 3rd lp.
The lyrics of Šibensko Powerhouse recall the hazy landscape of a past memory, albeit reconfigured through the presence of a song. Understanding that any story retold through writing or speech is effectively a fiction. Whilst still recording vocals in the booth, JOHN quickly recognised that past tour mate Adam Devonshire (of the band IDLES) would be the perfect tonal accompaniment to Newton's lead, and in a somewhat serendipitous manner, there was already a phone message from Devonshire awaiting them outside of the booth: asking them how the recordings were progressing. The resulting invite certainly pays off, adding to the sense of space that runs through the track-listing of Nocturnal Manoeuvres.
