Kllo 'Dissolve' into disconnected passion on new track

The Melbourne duo's debut LP 'Backwater' is out October 20

Melbourne duo Kllo have released the final single to be taken from their debut album 'Backwater' ahead of its release on October 20.

'Dissolve' burns with a powerful electronic edge beneath Chloe Kaul's ever-alluring vocals, inspired by a bad Skype call overheard while on tour in Cologne.

"The lack of intimacy led to a heated conversation," Kaul says.

"As soon as we went back to our hotel, I picked up the microphone and sang one of the lines I overheard and it went from there. There’s a huge disconnection when speaking through a screen, things can easily be misinterpreted."

The track follows previously released album singles 'Virtue,' 'Downfall' and 'Nylon.' Stream 'Dissolve' below.

'Backwater' is out October 20 via Good Manners/Caroline Australia, Ghostly International and Different Recordings.
