With their Australian tour sold out, and their debut US/Canada tour not far behind, Rum Jungle share new single ‘What’s It Like’ taken from debut album Recency Bias out 21st February 2025.
The four-piece have quickly built a global fanbase with their gritty alt-rock anthems, heartfelt ballads, and everything in-between – songs that capture a magnetic, introspective, and hyper-reflective state of mind. Their debut album is a reflection of the band’s evolution, creativity, and the inevitable pull of recent experiences that shape every artist. With pop melodies, psychedelic guitars, and chilled groove beats, their sound delivers a sweet and loveable vibe.
“‘What’s It Like’ is a track that deals with feeling like it’s such a miracle to have someone love you even if you don’t quite love yourself at times. It’s simple and it’s honest and it’s true. We thought about putting a lot more instruments into the song but it ended up being that we didn’t want to overcomplicate the arrangement so the lyrics and melody could stand out. We like to think the small touches of the brooding bass and screaming glitchy guitar towards the end makes the song feel enormous like the gravity of the feeling it’s talking about, while still being right down to earth.”, says vocalist/guitarist Benny McIntyre.
