Emerging from the vibrant streets of Bangkok, Salad is set to release their highly anticipated debut album, “21st Century in a Nutshell.” To give fans a final taste before the album drops, they have released the single “Black Mirror,” a powerful track that encapsulates their unique sound and profound lyrical themes.
About “Black Mirror”
“Black Mirror” is an interpretation of the hectic 21st-century life we’ve all been navigating. It’s a brutally honest reflection of modern dating and the communication gap that plagues our generation. The song draws from pop culture references, notably the modern TV series and a tale from the Brothers Grimm, creating a metaphorical narrative that resonates deeply with listeners.
“We wanted to convey how we see society today through our music,” the band explains. This track features the exceptional violin skills of View Athiya, adding depth and emotion. Additionally, drummer Korn Wichitsupyakorn suggested incorporating Afro beats into the song, giving it a unique flavor that sets it apart from their previous work.
