Ride have spoken to NME about their defiant new album ‘Interplay’ and shared new single ‘Peace Sign’. Check it out below along with our interview with frontman Mark Gardener and guitarist Andy Bell.The Oxford shoegazers’ first record in five years is due for release on March 29 and marks a period of triumph over adversity for the band as they battled through both COVID and a messy legal battle.

During their downtime, they also binged on Netflix documentaries about free climbers – most notably The Alpinist which inspired their new single.“It’s a bit like [2008 documentary] Man On Wire,” Bell told NME. “It’s about this guy called Marc-André Leclerc and he was an absolute kind of rock star free climber.“I came into the studio with ‘Peace Sign’ and finished it off with a reference to the film.

It’s mainly about this section where he knows he’s gonna climb this crazy rock face and he’s hanging out at his friend’s house while he’s waiting for the right weather conditions.”Bell continued: “At one point, he’s both playing with a three year-old kid in the garden but also watching his weather app and preparing himself for this extremely dangerous moment in his life.

In the song the lyrics are: ‘I think I’m ready / Yes I’m ready, this is the window and I’m not waiting’. All the energy in the song comes from that.”Gardener added: “And also I can’t imagine a better thing to be singing about right now in the current climate than the peace sign.“Everyone needs to be doing the peace sign again.

her “planned abdominal surgery.”The Princess of Wales, 42, returned home to Windsor Monday morning, where she will continue to recover behind closed doors until after Easter.The mother-of-three spent a total of 13 days at the London Clinic, before she was whisked away to Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, where she was reunited with Prince William and their three children.“The Princess of Wales has returned home to Windsor to continue her recovery from surgery. She is making good progress,” Kensington Palace said in a statement Monday.“The Prince and Princess wish to say a huge thank you to the entire team at The London Clinic, especially the dedicated nursing staff, for the care they have provided.”William, who had hit the brakes on his official engagements while Kate was in the hospital, is expected to resume his official duties once the Princess settles in back at home.“The Wales family continues to be grateful for the well wishes they have received from around the world,” the statement concluded.Royal sources say Kate’s return to official duties “will depend on medical advice closer to the time.”Since news of Kate’s health woes came to light, Kensington Palace has contacted the Princess’ 30 charities to postpone and reschedule engagements.Kate’s father-in-law, King Charles, remains in the London Clinic this afternoon after being admitted three days ago for treatment of an enlarged prostate.Last week, it was reported that the Princess didn’t tell those close to the royal family about her surgery.Sources told People that the news took Middleton’s loved ones by surprise, especially as “there had been no indication that anything was wrong” with her before her hospitalization on Jan.
