Pre-Order: Windwaker - smile, you're on camera [Red Smoke]

Australia's Windwaker are swinging for the fences with their new album (and third with Fearless Records) 'smile, you're on camera' and lead single "closer." The track is about arriving at a crossroads and deciding whether to give up and pursue normalcy or keep going and fight the good fight; it's an existential battle that most of us face and Windwaker effectively sets it to a post-industrial, alt-metal anthem. The lyrical "Do I or don't I" is matched by the song's push and pull intensity. Alternately smooth and glitchy verses are folded into stadium-ready choruses and breakdowns so deep they could cause an oceanic earthquake. The album and track are indicative of one thing: Windwaker have arrived.
