Modern Age Music Song of the Day: Sapphire Blues – ‘119’

Bristol post-punk outfit Sapphire Blues have dropped brand new track ‘119’, following on from 2019 debut single ‘Good Morning Britain’.

‘119’ winds it’s way through a captivating stop-start three minutes, with tempo changes aplenty and ringing guitars creating an entrancing and sometimes dark aura. Frontman Sam Lance Jones vocal is striking and emotion-filled.

The band say the song is “influenced by a house the band lived in and the writings of Bulgarian philosopher Emil Cioran.”
