Belgium’s Newmoon have announced the release of their new single ‘Head of Stone’.

The track is the first single lifted from their debut album ‘Space’, due for release in October.

Singer Bert Cannaerts explained ‘Head of Stone’ was written on a Japanese bullet train between Tokyo and Kyoto delving into how lost we may become when travelling due to language barriers.

Speaking of the single, Bert said: “I realised that there’s something very frightening about being in a place where you are unable to connect to people in any way. You cannot understand the language they are speaking; you can’t understand any visual cues. This can make you feel isolated and invisible. The same thing can happen with emotional relationships. They get to a point where people become unable to communicate, and emotions and nuances are lost. This leads to isolation and resentment and people go their separate ways.”
