Alt-pop highlight pure xtc is back to blur the crazed line between our realities and the sweet euphoric soundscape soundtracking our weekend madness with “paper sun.” Released via Cage Riot, “paper sun” showcases the building blocks of pure xtc’s career under the sun-tinged kaleidoscope limelight, like putting on your favorite pair of road trip sunglasses.
Being described as a “song tracing a fleeting reunion with a recent ex, caught in the undefined space between friendship and something unresolved, as the two drift through the boroughs in a chemically altered state.” These sentiments pull perfectly throughout the playfulness of the track’s various twists and turns.
Lyrically, pure xtc never misses to tell a compelling story that’s both completely unique and relatable to anyone that comes across its bright notes like your favorite cup of coffee. It’s the way the words bounce around capturing listeners within seconds, as none of “paper sun” fills like dead weight, and you can bet you’ll find yourself hitting replay constantly by the time you get to the end of this almost 4-minute explosive experience.
This new guitar-driven era of pure xtc has me incredibly excited for what else is in store as we approach the long summer days ahead! “paper sun” is now available to stream across your favorite streaming platforms. Also, make sure to catch pure xtc live throughout the summer months to fully capture this imaginative mind for yourself.
