Music News - Coridian new single 'Good For Nothing' to be unleashed on 8 May
Coridian, who last month dropped single The
Witness and announced their forthcoming EP Eldur for release on May 22nd
(available for Pre-Order here), will be unleashing their BIG
new anthem Good For Nothing on 8 May!
Eldur is the
third in a four EP series that the band began in 2015 with Oceanic. The
four EP cycle covers off all of the Elements that comprise the Earth.
The single is not without a message. According to the band, the new single is about false portrayal of having "the good life" on social media and the pressure to mirror that. "We’ve
become a society using social media to portray a false life by taking
snapshots of fabricated moments. The desire for likes are taking a toll on
our mental health, especially our youth."
"Social media influencers are
idolised by the youth as role models, yet the real role models are voiceless.
The nurses, teachers, first responders etc.. They are making a real difference
in this world. If people spent more time focusing on their real lives, rather than focusing
on their on-screen lives, we’d be taking steps to a better space for our next
generations."
On top of the new single and announcing the EP, Coridian have also been releasing a series of Documentary episodes about the creation of the EP on their YouTube Channel in the lead up to the release of Eldur. 3 out of the 5 episodes have
dropped to date; Episode 1, Episode 2 and Episode 3, with the last two episodes dropping ahead of the EP release date.
Coridian have
toured extensively around NZ, including their own headlining tours and
performing with high profile NZ acts such as Devilskin, City of Souls, I Am Giant, Skinny Hobos and Written by Wolves as well as international acts
such as Skillet (USA), P.O.D (USA), Fuel (USA), Fozzy (USA), Sumo Cyco (CAN)
& Red Sea (AUS).
Coridian's new EP Eldur will be available to the world on Friday May 22nd,
with pre-orders now available here. Previous single The Witness is available here.
