‘Modern Age’ is the new single from indie-electro-pop band Two Sevens. Recorded in a studio in Camberwell, London, where the band formed, ‘Modern Age’ shows off the vibrant nature of Two Sevens while making a poignant observation about freedom and the trappings of modern society. The stunning video, directed by Laurence Dutton, is set against a backdrop of the city’s materialism yet oozes energy, optimism and positivity. London-based Two Sevens is a three-piece band, formed of Sonya Frances (vocals), Matthew Davis (song, instruments), and Paul Bateman (instruments).The band’s self-titled debut mini-album was initially only released on vinyl but has just been released digitally along with this brand new single ‘Modern Age’. The debut album includes the track ‘207’ co-written with Stuart Moxham from iconic band Young Marble Giants.

‘Modern Age’ is a shimmering electronic pop number saturated in sharp production and slick 80’s infused musicianship. The song swirls in a flurry of synths while the acute fuzzed guitars pierce the asphyxiating soundscape with zealous animation. The band have created a lively synth pop tune with dark looming electronics which exudes an ominous tone while the sweet vocals and lush melody lull over the bustling backdrop. There is an instant rush of energy through the track while the flickering beat creates a sturdy foundation for the piercing melodic guitars and synths to ricochet off. ‘Modern Age’ is an intoxicating guzzle of synth pop.
