L'objectif Return With New Single/Video "The Dance You Sell"


Leeds indie rock band L'objectif have returned with their new single "The Dance You Sell" and its accompanying video.

The song is out today (Sept 28) through Chess Club Records and follows the release of their EP 'We Aren’t Getting Out but Tonight We Might', back in June. Get it here.

Frontman Saul Kane says: “I noticed that some people, including myself, can desire for a past that didn’t serve them at all. It’s like a yearning for a place of comfort but that comfort can depress you. This is something I’m learning and I guess you can see it in the narrative of the song, going from words of passion and love to just a general distaste. You convince yourself you need to be ‘stuck’ in this place, even though you feel completely different to how you used to. It’s this comfort we find in dullness that sometimes stops people from moving forward.”

Watch: L'objectif Unveil New Single/Video "Feeling Down"


Leeds indie rock band L'objectif have unveiled their new single "Feeling Down" and its accompanying video.

The song is out today (May 3) and is taken from their forthcoming EP 'We Aren’t Getting Out but Tonight We Might', set to arrive on July 29 through Chess Club Records. Pre-order it here.

L'Objectif are schoolmates Saul Kane (vocals, guitar) and Louis Bullock (drums) - who first formed a band together at the age of 12 - Ezra Glennon (bass) and Dan Richardson (guitar). With each member picking up instruments as children, the young friends - none of whom are over the age of 18 - have a shared love of genres and musicians that belies their tender age: jazz funk, hip-hop, punk, post-punk, and almost everything in between. Also inspired by painters Basquiat and Francis Bacon, L’Objectif seek excitement in the intellectually stimulating and subjective; finding thrill in the confusion.

Frontman Saul Kane says: “'Feeling Down' reflects the personal side to a relationship. Regrets, inner thoughts and self depreciation. It’s kind of a retelling of events through quite a melancholy lens.”

Watch: L'objectif Premiere New Single/Video "Same Thing"​​

Leeds indie rock band L'objectif have premiered their new single "Same Thing" and its accompanying video.

This is the band's second single, we have previously heard the band's debut single "Drive In Mind". Is is  taken from the upcoming EP 'Have It Your Way' set to arrive on July 20th through Chess Club Records. Get it here.

UPDATE 14/02/2022: "Same Thing" is our new Single of the Week!

Speaking about the track, vocalist Saul Kane explains: “The song itself is quite simplistic – I wanted to write something people can sing and dance to. The lyrics aren’t too complex either, but the subject matter can go as deep as you want it. For me, it’s about the introspective aspect of relationships with people and the connotations and worries we attach to different situations that are completely unhealthy and made up in our heads. It’s not a song telling someone nicely to stop overthinking; it’s telling your thoughts to shut up. At first I thought the lyrics were about someone else but it’s most likely a message to myself.”

Watch: L'objectif Premiere New Single/Video "Burn Me Out"

Leeds indie rock band L'objectif have premiered their new single "Burn Me Out" and its accompanied video.

This is the band's second single, we have previously heard the band's debut single "Drive In Mind". Is is  taken from the upcoming EP 'Have It Your Way' set to arrive on July 20th through Chess Club Records. Get it here.

Speaking about the track, vocalist Saul Kane explains: “I originally wrote the main structure for Burn Me Out over a year ago and it forever stayed as an old idea until recently when I decided to sit down and give it some attention. All I had was a chorus melody and the chord progression but the lyrical theme and subject found me in the end. The song is about dependency in a relationship and the constant cycle of habits that it entails, but it can be about anything that you rely on..”

Watch: L'objectif Unveil Debut Single/Video "Drive In Mind"

Leeds newcomers L'objectif have unveiled their debut single "Drive In Mind" and its accompanied video.

The song is out today (March 16) through Chess Club Records, get it here.

The band, a bunch of 16/17-year-old’s from West Yorkshire, are made up of schoolmates with a desire to forge music their own way. Frontman Saul Kane first formed a group with drummer Louis Bullock aged 12, and the duo are joined by bassist Ezra Glennon and guitarist Dan Richardson in L’objectif.

Speaking about the track, the band explain. “I started thinking about drive-in cinemas and those massive screens that they have with everyone parked watching the events of the film unfold. The idea of people coming to watch the contents of someone’s mind was interesting to me, the thoughts, anxieties and all the things you don’t want people to see exposed on a big screen.

“The lyrics are statements, ideas and observations that I was thinking around the time I wrote it, a cluster of thoughts exposed and amplified through song.”
