about

The tracks warrant an attack on selfish human behaviour, questioning the structure of glamour versus it’s resulting disillusion.

‘Based on the despondent culture surrounding Fyre Festival, the band explain : “we were really inspired by the idea of corporations faking wealth to acquire wealth, and how few people question this.” The track, Fake It, reflects a conformity of this new way of releasing music in the modern age, where the music often comes second-place to presentation, where faking it until you make it is often widely accepted - Jon Williams of Kopper states: “in reality we all are struggling artists that are constantly fighting an uphill battle for the attention of others.”

‘How Can You Be Sure?’ is a self-described “Unapologetic and cutting attack on human behaviour - it’s our way of investigating the norms around us, allowing us to take note of who is exploitative, in a world where glamour & fame often hosts a shady background of polarisation. The song points out the spectrum of shifting morality within people. Ultimately, the track asks how individuals should be wary of the hypocrisy within public figures who often speak with changing degrees of accuracy, and believe to be in a divine right to only be correct.”
