Alaskan Tapes has debuted his new song “The Times Are Tired,” which you can check out below. The track will be appear on his upcoming album Views From Sixteen Stories, out on September 19th. Talking about the tune’s inspiration, Alaskan Tapes says, “The track was heavily inspired by bands like Tarentel, Pan American, and other older post-rock bands. It’s a style I knew I wanted to explore, and knowing I need to bring drums back into my music was nerve-wracking. I hadn’t had drums be the forefront of a track in a few years since my album ‘We All Speak In Poems’ actually.. with it being the first single, I’m pretty nervous about it. Haha. The name of the track came from a poem by Silvia Plath called ‘The Times Are Tidy’, I often go through poetry books, and stuff like that to get track names and ideas that inspire me.”
