Kamp! - A New Leaf



After the success of their self-titled debut album. Polish synth-pop trio Kamp! is ready to reveal a series of new songs that will be released throughout the next couple of weeks. The first in the series of new tracks is "A New Leaf", recorded during Kamp!'s summer recording session in Red Bull Studios in Madrid. "A New Leaf" is somehow unique within these fresh tracks since it's the most similar to some parts of their debut album. However the instrumental B-side "Satansbraten" may signalize some upcoming surprises to its listeners. Yet again Kamp! brings you their own sounds of summer. Vacation is fast approaching!



In addition, Kamp! have also created video for "A New Leaf", directed by Polish photographer Sonia Szóstak, who also created an official cover of the single but its concept has changed rapidly at the last minute. Because of the retraction of a consent to show a face of a person who acts in the video, the band has been forced to cover it up and instead release it as a censored version.



In a statement Kamp! writes:
"We were convinced that the concept of showing an esthetically pleasing, subtle woman's sexuality which is a contradiction to a modern, music video "soft-porn" is something natural and will not raise any controversies. Our goal was not to shock but we admit that we have taken our inspiration from the site Beautiful Agony that has for a long time been fascinating to us as a sociological phenomenon. Sonia has filmed a beautiful video but unfortunately we cannot show it to You."

"A New Leaf" is out now via Brennnessel Records and available to purchase digitally on iTunes, Juno Download & Amazon. 7" is coming soon!
