“It’s a story about escaping from never-ending technological advancements and constant connectivity and scrutiny… The adventure of a lifetime can come from ‘tuning out.
The intention with “Candy Pop” was to create a song that epitomises the seductive nature of pop music and pop culture, while pointing out the absurdity of it all at once.”
"Candy Pop" is a catchy and upbeat song with a dark undercurrent. It's a perfect example of AWOLNATION's unique sound, which blends elements of rock, pop, and electronica.
