With Room Inside The World just a little over a week away from being released, Ought are throwing a stick into your spokes by sharing the album’s Side 1 closer, “Desire”. Best described by bassist Ben Stidworthy as “Sade meets Bruce Springsteen,” the song employs a 70-piece vocal choir and uncovers a romantic side of the band seen only in glimpses before. It’ll stop you dead in your tracks.
