CAFUNÉ – Attack + Release
Up next from their forthcoming album Bite Reality, multi-Platinum duo Cafuné today release the record’s second single “Attack + Release.”
The overcast, sultry ballad sees the band allowing the weight of their subconscious float to the surface, with contributions from percussionist Connor Parks and saxophonist Alfredo Colón.
Diving into their new release, Cafuné shared, “This song is about a crisis of faith; how people can lose their sense of self and belief in each other. Reject the cycle of cynicism because life is always a cycle of ebb and flow, here and gone, attack and release.”
Written and produced by band members Noah Yoo and Sedona Schat, Bite Reality will arrive on September 12 via SoundOn. As the New York duo stare head-on into a world of digital degradation, they ask what humanity looks like in an era increasingly defined by AI, algorithms, and artificial intimacy. They’re no longer running from the bite of reality, but biting reality back; their lyrics teem with brutal honesty, not avoidant analogy.
At the end of May, the band released the album’s thematic centerpiece, the single and video “e-Asphyxiation.” The guitar-driven electro-pop track confronts the cyberpunk conceit of “high-tech low-life” — the difficult task of remaining human in the dehumanizing world we have built.
