Ready Atlantic – You're Late!

"You're Late!": A cheeky wake-up call from the indietronic scene

With their track "You're Late!", Ready Atlantic man­ages to revital­ise the ener­get­ic atmo­sphere of the mid-2000s indi­et­ron­ic scene. This song from Norway exudes a bois­ter­ous energy that imme­di­ately brings to mind the works of bands such as "Robots In Disguise" and "Electrocute". The slight elec­tropunk twist gives the track an extra edge and makes it an abso­lute must for fans of the genre.

The single is char­ac­ter­ised by a catchy and upbeat rhythm that is imme­di­ately ear-catch­ing and inev­it­ably gets the listen­er tap­ping along. Capturing the all-too-famil­i­ar scen­ario of wait­ing for someone who is late, the song's lyr­ics are both play­ful and crit­ic­al. With repeated lines like "You said you'd be on time, but you're late", Ready Atlantic reflects an every­day frus­tra­tion that is trans­formed into a dance­able rebel­lion by the dynam­ic beat and elec­tron­ic vibes.

Fans of indi­et­ron­ic music and those who want to become fans should not miss this track. It is a clear sig­nal that the indi­et­ron­ic wave may be ready for a reviv­al after almost two dec­ades.

Lyrics of "Ready Atlantic – You're Late!"

Hey!
You said you’d be on time
But you’re late late late
You said you’d be on time
But you’re late

You said you’d be on time
But you’re late late late
You said you’d be on time
But you’re late you’re late

You said you’d be on time
But you’re late late late
You said you’d be on time
But you’re late you’re late

You’re check­ing all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks
Checking all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks
You’re Checking all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks
Ahh late again

You said you’d be on time
But you’re late late late
You said you’d be on time
But you’re late you’re late

You said you’d be on time
But you’re late late late
You said you’d be on time
But you’re late you’re late

You’re check­ing all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks
You’re check­ing all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks

You expect me just to wait here anyway
Twiddling your thumbs with no apology
You expect me just to wait here anyways
Twiddling your thumbs with no apologies
You expect me just to take this lay­ing down
(It’s abund­antly clear)
A plan to meet you out
You expect me just to take this lay­ing down
(That you don’t really care)
A plan to meet you out

You’re check­ing all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks
You’re check­ing all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks

You expect me just to take this lay­ing down
Next time I won’t make a plan to meet you out

You expect me just to take this lay­ing down
Next time I won’t make a plan to meet you out

You expect me just to wait here anyway
Twiddling your thumbs with no apology
You expect me just to wait here anyways
Twiddling your thumbs with no apologies
You expect me just to take this lay­ing down
(It’s abund­antly clear)
A plan to meet you out
You expect me just to take this lay­ing down
(That you don’t really care)
A plan to meet you out

You expect me just to wait here anyways
Twiddling your thumbs with no apologies!

You said you’d be on time
But you’re late late late
You said you’d be on time
But you’re late you’re late

You said you’d be on time
But you’re late late late
You said you’d be on time
But you’re late you’re late

You’re check­ing all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks
Checking all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks
You’re Checking all your watches
And you’re look­ing at your clocks
