We Are The Physics Unveil New Single, ‘Goran Ivanisevic’

We Are The Physics have both unveiled - and released - a new single today.

‘Goran Ivanisevic’, named after the infamous Croatian tennis star, and wild card winner of Wimbledon 2001, is the first taster of what we can expect from the Glasgow four-piece’s forthcoming second album.

Vocalist Michael M explains the choice of subject matter:

“We know zero about tennis, but Goran has always been one of our heroes just because of the sheer determination he had, having lost the title several times and the fact he claimed at every match he was playing against five different opponents, one of which was himself. And also the ball boys. After losing a title he said he was going to kill himself, then after beating Tim Henman he claimed he was genius. Just that furious drive and refusal to quit in the face of worldwide sneering, we’ve always thought was equally admirable and terrifying”

The single is available for a limited time as a free download, via the band’s website.

We Are The Physics’ next live date is in Glasgow on 19th July, supporting Bis.
