Synth-Pop’s Paul Jacks Shares New Single, “Too Emotional”
“‘Too Emotional’ is one of those multi-layered songs that causes you to pause and analyse it; to decipher the distinct layers, and to think about where you’ve heard it before. It’s at once new and familiar at the same time: it’s retro and modern; upbeat and yet covering deep subject matter. ‘Too Emotional’ is just that – it brings out the emotions of the listener and entices, confuses, and pleases us at the same time.” – Essentially Pop

OUT NOW The New Division’s “Fascination” video; a very relevant social commentary
“Fascination” is the first single from The New Division’s forthcoming album, Hidden Memories. John Kunkel explains the song is about his experiences of being on tour both stateside and internationally, and how sleep deprivation alters the mind. “I’ve always wanted to write a song that touched on the mental health aspects of being on tour, sleep deprived, and how that starts to mess with your thoughts. The words are a series of lyrics that jotted down on a notepad, which at the time made no sense, but I jotted them down regardless. To me the song is a dream sequence where half of the time I’m enjoying being on the road while the other half I’m kind of hating life, wishing I was home. Touring never feels completely right and never feels completely wrong, and that’s where the fascination aspect of it all comes together. You’re in a constant zombie state where normal life ceases to exist, and your mind begins to adapt to being on the road.”
