The F16s are back with a new single entitled “Sucks To Be Human” off their upcoming EP Is It Time To Eat The Rich Yet? out October 22nd via House Arrest. The track follows up on video efforts for “Easy Bake Easy Wake” and “I’m on Holiday.” “Sucks To Be Human” further proves that the Chennai, India-based four-piece is at the top of their indie-pop game. Like the previous cuts, this new one is an epic mini-drama that effortlessly shifts stylistic gears with breezy aplomb. Packed with a seemingly endless array of musical ideas, this is pop music at the meta-level. While the song has a playful ease on its sugar-glinted surface, the band’s vocalist Joshua Fernandez explains:
“Human short sightedness combined with pride and willfull ignorance are literally destroying the world. Brain dead rotting world of humans whose core existence depends on nothing more than consumerism and pop culture…Society is a hack. Can we please get abducted already?”
