Lyric

An irresistible craving for sweetness, and a cosmic perspective on the inevitability of everything - two songs built on entirely different themes, placed side by side on a sharp, unrelenting rock foundation.
Having long drawn inspiration from Jazz, Soul, and Latin music, Salty takes a decisive turn with this release, channeling something rawer and more electric. This double single - Salty's first-ever dual release - marks a bold new chapter while retaining the poetic sensibility that has always been at the heart of their work. "Junkie" traces the decadent pull of a relationship you know you shouldn't want, and "Gate, Gate" transforms the closing mantra of the Heart Sutra into a playful, wide-eyed meditation on fate, connection, and the butterfly effect of simply being alive. Two contrasting stories, bound together as one.
