Otzeki release new single ‘Max Wells-Demon’

Two years on since the release of their debut album, Otzeki have announced that its follow-up, ‘Now Is A Long Time’, will be arriving on 19th March, and they’re sharing new single ‘Max Wells-Demon’ to celebrate.

“Max Wells-Demon is a fictional character,” Mike Sharp explains. “I wanted to write from the perspective of a city boy, who lives for the weekend and has a kind of dual personality, circulating between the extremes of a demoralising, mundane job; and constantly dealing with the debris of excessive drug use. I grew up listening to Blur and thought it might be interesting to kind of rewrite their song ‘Charmless Man’ from the perspective of the charmless man himself. Influenced by reading City Boy and American Psycho; and bumping into some old friends on nights out who’ve wound up working in the Square Mile.”
