Purple Pilgrims – “Outside”

The Nixon sisters, hailing from New Zealand, have unveiled their latest album, Given To The Night, through the fashionable AD 93 label. Their lead single, "Innocence Lost," hinted at the promise of the album, which includes the track "Outside." This elegant dream-pop ballad resonates with a timeless quality, evoking a transmission from a bygone era.

The band shared their thoughts on the new song, describing it as an ode to outsiders. In the past, this term may have carried a negative connotation, but now it feels like a prestigious privilege. They appreciate the space of being an outsider, where one can put on headphones and navigate the world simultaneously within and alongside others.

This shared feeling of solitude is considered sacred, according to the band. "Outside" delves into profound existential themes, contemplating the origins of our existence as pure energy and the potential to transcend beyond. It also acknowledges the beauty found in transition, even when broken down into quantum forms. The band invites listeners to explore this concept further.

The article concludes with an invitation to listen to the track and share one's opinion on the band name, which the author mistakenly associates with D12. The article also encourages readers to consider remixing the song with Denaun Porter.
