Nachdem YOU ME AT SIX zuletzt mit „Deep Cuts„, „No Future? Yeah Right!“ (feat. Rou Reynolds von Enter Shikari) und „Mixed Emotions (I Didn’t Know How To Tell You What I Was Going Through)“ ihr neues Album „Truth Decay“ für den 27. Januar 2023 via Underdog Records / AWAL ankündigten, folgt heute mit „heartLESS“ eine neue Single.
Sänger Josh Franceschi sagt dazu:
„‚heartLESS‘ was a song we’ve been sitting on for years knowing it would always come out. It’s a song about feeling insecure and yet accepting of whatever may come. I wrote this song about someone close to me in the middle ground of a break up and falling in love.“
Um die Veröffentlichung des Albums zu feiern, hat sich die Band mit Music Declares Emergency zusammengetan und eine sehr begrenzte Anzahl von „Truth Decay“ ‚Decayed Versions‚ (alle einzigartig und von der Band handgefertigt) zur Verfügung gestellt. Aus recyceltem Plastik und Farbe hergestellt, geht ein Teil des Umsatzes dieser Version an die Kampagne „No Music On A Dead Planet“ von Music Declares Emergency.
Josh sagt zu der Partnerschaft:
„We wanted to do something fun for fans but also something that told the story about this record. So we decided to represent decaying records by spray painting and burning them and generally doing whatever we could without actually breaking them! It felt important to further the message with these and team up with the ‘No Music On A Dead Planet’ campaign who do great work to raise awareness of global warming and how the music industry can help steady the decline of the planet.“
Music Declares Emergency ergänzt:
„We are delighted to be working with You Me At Six on their new album release. As a band that has been unafraid to speak out on the climate emergency we are proud to partner with them on the limited edition version of ‚Truth Decay‘ and hope their fans will enjoy the album and the message that there is No Music On A Dead Planet.“
