ALTERNATIVE DUO FOREIGN AIR SHARE “SAVE US”

Enigmatic duo Foreign Air shared their pleading new single, “Save Us.” Underscored by driving beats and sweeping string arrangements, the track dives into “existential anxieties of a world on the edge.” 

They explain, “the track speaks to the overwhelming feelings of disconnection, loss, and the quiet implosion of modern life, with haunting lyrics that reflect on a universal search for meaning in uncertain times. From the desperation of asking, ‘Who will save us?’ to the stark imagery of a fractured world—where the atom is split, money is gone, and silence replaces connection. It is an anthem for those grappling with the chaos of today’s world.”

Jacob adds, “The song began during a writing retreat to North Carolina, centered around the breakbeat and bassline.  Jesse started playing the piano and singing the ‘Who will save me’ vocal .  Using Soundtoys Alterboy, we transformed the vocal to give it a sampled like feel.   The track was later completed at Spacebomb Studios in Richmond, VA with John Trainum (Kate Bollinger), where we recorded live cello and violins.”

Today, they share the track along with the official video, which premiered this morning on Flood Magazine. Shot in North Carolina, the video takes viewers on a journey through decaying, desolate landscapes as the band searches for meaning and connection. They add, “The surreal visuals reflect the song’s themes of isolation and fragility, capturing the songs emotional depth.”

“’Save Us’ is a dire plea for salvation that blends the orchestral flourishes of its predecessor with a driving breakbeat and lightly modulated vocals.”
