Returning London indie types O Children are set to release new single ‘Chimera’ on June 11th.
Born out of a traumatic period in singer Tobi O’Kandi’s life, O Children’s new album ‘Apnea’ is a powerful statement. Musically more direct and adventurous than their debut, the record contains some dark, probing lyrics.
Album cut ‘PT Cruiser’ emerged on Record Store Day, with the band now lining up a new single. ‘Chimera’ is the closing track on the new record, and demonstrates O Children’s compelling drama.
Due to be released on June 11th, you can stream ‘Chimera’ below.

Chatting with ClashMusic recently, O Children frontman Tobi O’Kandi seemed to be at ease with the troubles which beset him. “With all the stuff that happened, it sort of made me – for the use of a better word – a better person. It opened up a lot, it was a kind of like a really cathartic therapy session, in a way”.
“I came out of it feeling so fresh and and once all that stuff was done, once the album and all that stuff was done it was almost like fate, like it was meant to happen like this and now we can take this on tour”.
