Watch: Arcane Roots Reveal Brand New Video For ‘Slow’

The debut album from Arcane Roots has been a long time coming, but finally, the release of ‘Blood & Chemistry’ is on the horizon.

Set to officially unveil their first full-length on 6th May, the trio are set on giving us a preview in the form of their new single ‘Slow’.

Available on 20th May, you can check out the brand new video for the track below, along with an insight into the song itself, as given by frontman Andrew Groves.



“Slow is a reminder of what you have and what it means to you. Even when you take something or someone for granted over and over again. It was one of the first songs written for ‘Blood & Chemistry’ and it also took the longest to complete and record. This long and difficult process actually ended up serving the song perfectly by making each section of the song chronological to the lyrics. Every time we revisited the song again we added new parts and I amended the lyrics to become more relevant to my feelings at the time. It now reads like a story from having to be reminded of what you have and the spark between you, to finally admitting what your actions had been telling you all along and finding the spark again.”
