With the release of the "Cows" single, Glitter Etiquette deliver a soiree of lush rock tonality that expands into experimental textures and all with a colorful yet edgy approach.

 

"Cows is a metaphor for complacency. It’s about people who are propagandized and tricked into believing everything is okay when things are not and it’s also about mortality. Like to not take life for granted. The cow is a metaphor for us and the butcher is the impending doom. And we let the butcher do what it’s going to do without stopping it through complacency. The slaughter is described as ‘love’ to make it more palatable. Only at the end of the song are the lines 'find out your cuts in the day' with the true meaning revealed.

 

It was written because of the current world climate and things going on. So many are tricked into complacency without looking further into what’s actually happening. So, 'Cow' is really a sign of the times song," explains the band of their single.

The Glitter Etiquette lineup was different when it first started a few years ago.  During their beginnings they were influenced by a more experimental post-punk sound which eventually turned to a more grunge feel and finally hit a shoegaze soundscape by their 2nd EP Springall. 

The band now incorporates electronic and keys to go along with that experimental approach and "Cows" is a glimpse of what's to come on their next EP. 

"Our sound continues to evolve as we experiment with new technology, instruments and methods of production. I feel with every project we do, we try to achieve a new soundscape and world within it. Our first project Silicone Bodies had heavy grunge influence. Our following Ep Springfall had a lot of shoegaze influence like Jesus and Mary Chain, Catherine Wheel. Then our new project Cerulean is very much electronic rock. I feel a bit of shoegaze touches all of our projects. But we are always experimenting to communicate each songs message through the tools we have, keyboards, guitars, bass drums vocals. These are the main tools in our arsenal. This project only widens the scope of our sound with a new elevated dreamscape." says the band of their evolution in sound. 

"Cows" is available for streaming and download on all major outlets and the band is ramping up for their EP set to drop this April.
