Getdown Services Gear Up for ‘Primordial Slot Machine’ EP with New Single “Eat Quiche, Sleep, Repeat”
Cult favorites and rising indie darlings Getdown Services are set to drop their highly anticipated EP, Primordial Slot Machine, on June 6 via Breakfast Records. Eager fans can get a taste of the new project with the release of their latest single, “Eat Quiche, Sleep, Repeat,” which marks an exciting evolution in their sonic exploration.
Following the introspective themes of their 2024 EP, Your Medal’s In The Post, “Eat Quiche, Sleep, Repeat” invites listeners into a world where self-acceptance reigns over the relentless pursuit of unattainable ideals. The duo candidly reflects on their journey, revealing a striking pitfall in modern optimism—the bitter realization that perhaps they won’t achieve that ‘happy-go-lucky’ existence society often pushes.
“This song is about accepting there’s a chance our bitterness won’t ever fully go away,” the band explains, diving into the complexities of finding peace amid internal struggles. They challenge the notion of eradicating life’s distresses, advocating instead for a mindset of management—embracing both joy and a sprinkle of semi-misery. “Maybe we’ll be fine as we are: happy a lot of the time but always at least semi-miserable,” they add, delivering an anthem of flawed humanity that resonates deeply.
The track captures the band’s signature blend of euphoric yet melancholic melodies, setting the stage for what Primordial Slot Machine might hold. The EP will include notable tracks like “Provide Me Your Name,” “Chrysalis,” “James Bay’s Hat,” “God Bless,” and “Drifting Away,” promising a collection rich with introspection and musicality.
In addition to the EP announcement, Getdown Services have laid out an extensive autumn UK headline tour, which will follow a packed summer of festival appearances. Fans can look forward to seeing the duo at London’s Islington Assembly Hall, marking what promises to be their most significant show to date.
