Hailing from Cardiff, Red Telephone’s blend of melodic psych and darkwave has drawn comparisons to indie trailblazers MGMT, St. Vincent, and fellow Welsh cult favourites Super Furry Animals. Their second album ‘Delay The New Day’ was released in January 2025, garnering critical acclaim from the likes of Clash, Under The Radar, and God Is In The TV.

Exploring themes of paranoia, doubt, hope, and the trappings of group dynamics, ‘Delay the New Day’ was arranged by the band in solitude in Cornwall and recorded semi-live in under two weeks. Driven by the quintet's knack for multi-instrumental intricacies and drawing on cinematic influences, Red Telephone’s latest work is bold, genre-bending and defiantly optimistic, while staying true to the unique style they established in their 2023 debut.

“Gritty, brilliantly dark and expansive. A deliciously dark, mesmerising and a dystopian-tinged sonic palette that could have been heard in Bowie’s Berlin in the late 1970’s. An impressive and masterful debut.” - Clash Music

“Very nicely layered. Has a bit of early 80s melodrama; a sort of Pet Shop Boys croon and a Krautrock halo.” – Steve Lamacq, BBC 6 Music

“They have the potential to soundtrack a generation.” – Drowned in Sound

“Something brilliantly dark about this, with their synth psych noir with a pulse. Real potential to go big.” - Chris Hawkins, BBC 6 Music

“With music as smart as their aesthetic, Cardiff’s Red Telephone are making neo-noir sounds that could have made it onto the ‘Drive’ soundtrack.” – Gigwise

"Don't Look At Me With Those Eyes" explores the intoxicating and terrifying power of attraction.  It's a song about being caught in the undertow of desire, where another person's gaze becomes a consuming fire, brighter than the neon glow of the world around them.  The lyrics depict a crowded space, yet the connection between these two individuals isolates them, turning the crowd into a nameless sea where the narrator is adrift.  The touch of a hand ignites this connection further, transforming a simple touch into a gripping force that pulls the narrator under.  It's a battle between the magnetic pull of another and the self-protective instinct to resist, a dance on the edge of a precipice where one wrong step could lead to blissful destruction.

(Verse 1)   The neon signs they are shining brightly  In the  hazy midnight glow  But your eyes they are burnin' brighter,  Brighter than any light I’ve known.  Drowning in the sea of faces, lost in the nameless tide.  Oh, your eyes they burn like fire, devouring  me alive  (Chorus)  Don't look at me with those eyes, Don't look at me with those eyes, Baby, please don’t look at me Baby, please don’t look at me With those longing eyes. (Verse 2)  Your hand finds mine, a gripping touch that lingers,  Every word you whisper, a story left untold I try to pull away, pull away so gently,  But your grip just tightens more.  I'm swept away from the shore. I’m lost in the nameless tide Oh, the waves are getting stronger, drowning me alive   (Chorus)
