Following recent single ‘Know How It Hurts’ and after recently announcing their third album Late To The World released on February 21, leftfield alt-pop duo IDER have shared their poignant and anthemic new single ‘Attachment Theory’, out now via Nettwerk.
New track ‘Attachment Theory’ follows recent singles ‘Know How It Hurts’, ‘Unlearn’, ‘Girl’, and ‘You Don’t Know How To Drive’, and is a soaring and reflective synth-pop anthem that is lyrically confessional, discussing the themes of love language and attachment styles. Alongside the track, the band have shared an understated, yet relatable video filmed in London on 16mm film by Basha De Bruijn.
Speaking about the track, they say, “we wrote ‘Attachment Theory’ after a friend asked us to write a song about attachment styles. It seems as though everyone is obsessed with the idea and with self-diagnosing, so we decided to write a confessional song about ours. On a deeper and more emotional level it’s about the fear of being defined by the way you love and desperately wanting to change it.”
Discussing the video, they say, “we made the video for ‘Attachment Theory’ with director and friend Basha De Bruijn. The concept was simple – us crying and “getting through life” in everyday situations filmed around London and at Meg’s flat, to capture the raw and real message of the song. The video was shot on 16mm film which made the final visual and the filming experience as true to life as possible.”
