Back after their album Waves, Pale Grey writes the continuation of their story in three incantatory letters. In the music video that accompanies the single "EVE", the Belgian quartet embarks on a bus journey. On the way to their next stop, the musicians meet the gaze of a young woman. A key figure in a developing storyline, this character accompanies the return of the band. Emerging from the Belgian heights, between eternal forests and longing for elsewhere, Pale Grey cultivates their melancholy through songs woven with delicate charm. At the crossroads of electronica, dream pop and abstractions taken from the hip-hop scene, the band sketches out a singular universe.
Recorded in Belgium with producer Ash Workman (Metronomy, Christine and the Queens, Baxter Dury), "EVE" transports us into an everyday scene. Aboard a bus, among passengers, the mind wanders, trying to project itself, to imagine the lives of strangers. In a fraction of a second, the imagination flourishes, moving freely between fiction and reality, intuitions and foolish certainties. As in an Iñárritu film, poetic evocation prevails over realistic representation.
After crossing Europe and racking up some 3 million streams with its previous album, Pale Grey is now looking to the future with a song that speaks volumes about its intentions.
