"Trip Switch" is a song by English alternative rock band Nothing but Thieves. It was produced by Julian Emery and was released as a single from the band's self-titled album on 18 June 2015. [1] It topped the Billboard Alternative Songs chart in 2016. [2] The song was also used in the video game FIFA 16.
According to guitarist Joe Langridge-Brown, the lyrics are a comment on the modern world’s reliance on digital communication and how lost we’d be without wi-fi or electricity. Also the song served as an inspiration for the album art. [3][ better source needed]
The official music video was released on 1 July 2015. [4]
