The ’90s sound is definitely experiencing a successful revival among today’s alternative rock scene. In this case, it’s Danish rockers Captain Casanova and their new single “Futures,” which incorporates grunge filled scuzz, demonstrating similar characteristics to that of its predecessors in Nirvana, Pavement, and Dinosaur Jr.
The Aarhus based three-piece channel grunge-infused garage rock on their latest offering and whilst the chorus feels bright and uplifting, the message behind the song takes on a more sombre note. “The song is written as an explanation and a goodbye to the son of my former girlfriend,” explains guitarist and singer Rasmus Bredvig. “It’s also a song about the frustration of loosing and not wanting to loose that naïve point of view where you think something will last forever.”
The band’s new single “Futures” contains video footage taken from Rasmus’ childhood days, which are deliberately more uplifting than the message of the song itself. It’s a nostalgic look back into Rasmus’ past—keeping the feeling and those days vivid and alive in his memory.
“Futures” is in stores now via Tapetown Records.
