“God Complex” by Gentle Party

Chamber pop trio Gentle Party have a new tease of their upcoming album by way of the single “God Complex”.

The single is “an inquisitive and melodic embodiment of a misogynistic individual who is celebrated in the group’s artistic community” with the band adding: "so many times people's 'apologies' for their bad behavior are simply spineless virtue signaling, without integrity, values, or behavior change to back it up."

Check out the video below, which is a collaboration between artists Eva Dominelli and Ryan Qui, and mark down February 17th for the release of the album!
