Caravan Palace is definitely a band you will want to see live as they have never failed to amaze and entertain with inspiring music and a sheer ability to bring a good time to any festival or concert arena.  Since the bands start they have been able to pack out and sell tickets to their shows mostly due to word-of-mouth and the fact that they put on an outstanding live performance.

\"10469779_10155740024770635_7194159728162934242_n\"<\/a><\/span><\/span>The video for the new single ‘Comics’ is symbolic in it’s images taking place in city streets with young people in a bowed down or bent over manner being watched and influenced by a woman with a black dress, crown, and creepy mask that is somewhat patrolling their every action. The video was directed by French filmmaker Soandsau, who had this to say about the video,<\/p>\n

“It is a moral tale that takes place in the street, but without cynicism. A breach of hope, but without naivety\u201d. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

‘Comics’ is a spectacular song that has a vintage style with influences of hip-hop and jazz that combine with modern synth heavy electronic dance music of today and will be featured on their upcoming album <\/em><I\u00b0_\u00b0I>. The single boasts a hopping beat with retro synth sounds that have a vintage vibe and a vocal that is manipulated, heavily effected, and dramatically swirled around in stereo. The synth parts are bold yet provide a retro sound that take the lead as the vocals take a break with embellished pitch bending and ear catchy melodies. The new album from Caravan Palace, <I\u00b0_\u00b0I>, will be released October 16th but it is also available for pre-order allowing the single ‘Comics’ to be available immediately after purchasing the pre-ordered album.  Pre-order the new album here: hyperurl.co\/CPAlbum<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
