Blues Pills have released a video for their new single Low Road, taken from their forthcoming album Holy Moly!
“We wrote Low Road about being your own worst enemy,” the band explain. “About running from your own demons only to realise that you can’t, because the problem is inside of yourself. ‘Low Road’ is maybe one of the heaviest songs we’ve ever written, filled with the brutalness of the human mind, that can be both vicious and lost. Everybody have probably found themselves fumbling in the dark at some point in life. And with ‘Low Road’ there is no way out. We love playing this song live, because it’s just raw, balls to the wall rock power. Hopefully this can be a relief for a moment in this wicked world.”
“With the video for Low Road we just wanted to express ourselves live and adding some humour to this raw tune putting ourselves in a twisted surreal TV-show,” the band add. “And in some way it’s an honour to some of our heroes from the 60s-70s era of rock’n’roll it’s where we got the inspiration from. The Beatles, Jefferson Airplane, The Doors, MC5, The Rolling Stones to mention a few. The ones who did something to break down the barriers. Imagine, to be the ones taking the first steps opening up the world to heavier rock music. We love them for that.”
