"Well Rested" (future), our longest track yet at over seven minutes, addresses The Resurrection and humanity's distant future. Its direct, documentary style was inspired by narrative art like the Bayeux Tapestry and Trajan's Column. Players build a civilization from a primitive tribe, competing with rival computer- or human (in some editions)-controlled civilizations. "21/04/20" (present) recounts a typical day in the early Covid lockdown in Bromley (South London), complete with a late leftover pasta breakfast, enthusiastic joggers and friendship conducted over video call. Sid Meiers Civilization II is a turn-based strategy video game in the Civilization series, developed and published by MicroProse.It was released in 1996 for PCs, and later ported to the PlayStation by Activision. It tells the story of a young explorer who was kidnapped and revered as a princess by an isolated society her worshippers later found her gone, but it's up to the listener to guess her fate. "The Princess and the Clock" (past) is a legend of our own invention, designed to feel like a familiar folk tale. Here's the band with more:Įach of Civilisation II's three tracks are set in the past, present and future respectively. (And you thought they forgot!)

Kero Kero Bonito have released a new EP, Civilisation II, which is the two-years-in-the-making follow-up to 2019's Civilization I. A review of Kero Kero Bonito's new EP, Civilisation II.
