this new tune takes no prisoners, it’s an in-your-face tune, with driving guitars, walls of sound, huge rhythm and riffs all the way throughout. Jordao’s vocal sounds fantastic on this, really proving his ability to command the track – and with their classic no-nonsense lyricism, they’ve created not only a proper singalong tune, but one that relates to the feelings and emotions of those who may feel lost in modern society. it’s yet another incredible tune from them! πŸ’₯
