Why do we like this?

Codename: Library Fire

Visitors Centre, a Cape Town-based alt-rock amalgamation, drops a Molotov cocktail of a track with "Double Eagle V" — a song that has a journey to it as vast as its namesake.

"Double Eagle V" is a prog-punk track that has its roots in alt-rock, indie, and a library of literature, history, and pure fiery frustration. It's an institution on fire, but we started it, and we have the best view to watch as Salinger and Arcade Fire both go up in a synth chord-ashed, bass-blemished ballad that's as tired of the world as you are.

It's the first single to be posted to each house in the Visitors Centre's City and we are all invited to the revolution at 6 o'clock - bring a drumset and a mic.

The Visitors Centre is open, and this was the daily news.
