Modern Age Music Song of the Day: King No-One – ‘Obsolete’

York’s finest, King No One, have returned with a storming new single titled ‘Obsolete’.

‘Obsolete’ is the latest single in a new chapter for the outfit, who have been making waves over the last few years for their brand of confessional yet catchy alternative indie.

With a stunning live show and remarkable songwriting talent, the trio have amassed an army of fans worldwide, and become one of the UK’s most vital and adored live bands, constantly pushing the boundaries.

‘Obsolete’ effortlessly showcases this sentiment, and takes everything from the King No-One creative palette to glorious new heights.

Unearthing the beauty from life’s darker moments, the single sees a juxtaposition of darkly cathartic lyrical work and optimistic melodies before delivering one of 2021’s biggest choruses so far. 

Speaking about ‘Obsolete’, King No-One said: Fusing 00s R&B and 90s grunge, ‘Obsolete’ is about the pursuit of hedonism to mask the shame that depression can leave you with. And the first acknowledgement that you kinda suck and don’t want to suck anymore.”
