Hurray for the Riff Raff has released two new songs, “Colossus of Roads” and “Snake Plant (The Past Is Still Alive).” Along with the previously revealed song “Alibi,” they will appear on their upcoming LP The past is still alive, which will be released on February 23 via Nonise. Take a listen below.
“I've only had this experience a few times, where a song falls on me — it's all there, and I don't do anything,” Alinda Segarra said in a statement. “Writing 'Colossus Of Roads' feels like it's creating a space where all strangers can be safe together. It doesn't exist, but it's there in our minds, and it's in this song — this song is sacred to me. I've also always wanted to make my version of Bob Dylan's “I Was Young When I Left Home” and “Snake Plant (The Past Still Lives)”.
