2022 only just begun and surprise Toronto’s The Weather Station dropped this emotional driven music video for Endless Time.
The leading single is taken from the upcoming surprise fifth album called How Is It That I Should Look at the Stars which comes out on March 4, 2022 via Fat Possum and Next Door Records (Canada).
A companion/follow up album to the extraordinary fourth album Ignorance which came out last year.
Intimate piano driven ballad that pulls on the emotional feelings on what is happening in today’s world.
About the track:
Lindeman sings about a feeling of unease, interweaving relational loss with anxiety about the impending climate crisis.
She wonders whether she would look back on the present moment as one of unnoticed abundance as she repeats in the song ‘it’s only the end / of an endless time’.
Lindeman comments, “In Toronto, I live in a world of overwhelming abundance; fruits and fresh vegetables flown in year round from Chile, California, Malaysia.
Standing outside a neighbourhood fruit stand one day, I found myself wondering how I would look back on this time from the future; if I would someday remember it as a time of abundance and wealth I did not fully comprehend at the time, and I wondered how it would feel to stand at that threshold of change.
I wondered too if we were not already there. The song was written long before the pandemic, but when we recorded it, on March 11, 2020, it began to feel eerily prescient.
The day it was recorded truly was the end of an endless time, and as ever, I don’t know how the song knew. Somehow, the music captures that instability; it is ungrounded and diaphanous, it floats and drifts.”
