'Told' is the new single from Norwegian 'daze-pop' trio Great News. With its kinetic, washed-out hue and psych-tinged soundscapes, it is a track that will peak the interest of fans of Wild Nothing, Radio Dept. and Day Wave, and is complete with a euphoric chorus that touches on the theme of following one's dreams. Of the track the band - who play a handful of live dates in the coming weeks - explain, "Growing up today, we are repeatedly told to focus on the future, have kids, get married and earn lots of money to achieve true happiness, like that's the only way of solving the puzzle of life. Fuck that. Do what you want, not what you're told." A simple but important message then, all wrapped-up in a deliciously dreamy indie package; you have been told. -G.O'B
