Krooked Tongue confronts digital detachment on new single ‘Let ‘Em Loose’
Bristol rock trio Krooked Tongue returns with their first new music of 2025.
Recorded with longtime collaborator Josh Gallop at Stage 2 Studios in Bath, ‘Let ‘Em Loose’ is a fuzz-drenched rocker that tackles the modern struggle of digital addiction. The track blends driving rhythms, searing guitar lines, and frontman Oli Rainsford’s commanding baritone to craft a sonic wake-up call. With playful phrasing and biting humor, the song critiques the overwhelming presence of technology in our daily lives, urging listeners to reconnect with the world beyond their screens.
Describing the single, Rainsford states:
“‘Let ‘Em Loose’ is a song that parallels the technological age we find ourselves in today. We’re all so addicted to screen time that we forget how important it is for us to spend time with each other, really with each other. No distractions; Harking back to that old cliche of ‘living in the moment.'”
He continues:
“Whilst you’re scrolling reels or finding yourself down YouTube rabbit holes all night, you’re missing your kids growing up, you’re missing out on your Grandad’s most compelling stories and you’re eating away at the dwindling hourglass of time. It’s harder now more than ever NOT to be sucked into the world of social media, but in the words of Eddie Abbew … ‘Wake the fuck up.'”
‘Let ‘Em Loose’ is out now.
