New Euphony & Visuals by King Krule: “If Only It Was Warmth” Unveiled
From the adept musical mind of King Krule comes a fresh track and video, titled “If Only It Was Warmth,” advancing the eagerly awaited release of the album Space Heavy. Set to be launched by Matador Records on June 9th, this album marks another milestone in the ever-evolving King Krule soundscape.
The new tune “If Only It Was Warmth” is a beguiling blend of sparse instrumentals and introspective lyrics. The accompanying video is a self-guided journey traversing expansive waters, taking along a cactus for company. Encountering personifications of love and severed bonds in the form of ominous shadows, the video offers a profound visual experience. Take a gander at this newly minted creation here.

This latest offering from King Krule follows the announcement of his fourth studio album, Space Heavy. The album was unveiled in tandem with its introductory single and music video, “Seaforth,” under the direction of Jocelyn Anquetil. A decade after his initial album, Space Heavy signifies a return to the hauntingly ethereal sonic world that Archy, aka King Krule, has spent years cultivating.
Space Heavy is an assembly of 15 riveting tracks, carefully penned between 2020 and 2022, while Archy was shuttling between London and Liverpool. Archy’s exploration of the theme of “the space between” becomes evident in this work; the undefined void occupied by aspirations of love and narratives of missed connections and inevitable loss in the universe’s grand scheme. The album reveals King Krule’s progression over the years, presenting a multifaceted body of work that unfolds new facets with each subsequent play.
