Electronic-pop outfit Elder Island will unveil their new Additions Attachments EP next month.

Announced today, the EP, which drops on October 28, will feature songs that were originally left unfinished. The first single from the release titled “Motive” can be seen below.

The band said this about the new song, which is available on digital services right now:

“We started it in 2020 alongside a lot of the tracks on our last album, 2021’s Swimming Static [which was recorded in their home studio in 2020 and fit between the surreal dream-state of electronica and the storytelling-esque lyricisms of indie] but we struggled to find the right tone. The original was minimal and moody. We added a wordy, chord driven middle, and we tried it with 80s style live drums. Nothing seemed to satisfy so we shelved it.”

When it comes to the EP’s title, the band said:

“It seemed like a fitting title. As a collection of tracks linked to other albums, the tracks became appendages of these other works, Additions Attachments. Nice and simple. Maybe one day we can revisit the idea: Additions Attachments 2 - Just tying up loose ends.”

Elder Island will pay California a visit this month with a performance at CRSSD Fall Festival in San Diego this Sunday (September 25) and a DJ set at Sound in Los Angeles on Thursday (September 29). Tickets can be found here.
