Following the release of recent singles “Iron Lung” and “Cells”, BLOOD YOUTH have unleashed another hard-hitting new track, titled “Body of Wire”. Listen to it here and watch the video above.
Guitarist Chris Pritchard comments: “Body Of Wire is a song that came out of nowhere whilst writing for the new album. It all started with the one riff at the beginning and just exploded into this chaotic mix of just pure aggression and energy. There’s something about a song that just switches up formulas, doesn’t lose pace and just cuts the bullshit out and is essentially just 4 minutes of pure unforgiving riffs. Being that; this song quickly became one of our favourites”.
Blood Youth shine as one of UK Metal’s brightest talents. Blending bile with beauty, the quartet create an intense sonic experience that is unmistakably their own, effortlessly switching from pummelling, groovy riffs to soaring, melodic choruses, interwoven with a raw, lyrical depth that draws from personal experiences. Known for their captivating live shows, the band has won over fans across the continent after sharing stages with Prophets Of Rage, While She Sleeps, Architects and Bury Tomorrow, and wowing crowds with incendiary performances at Reading & Leeds and Download. Iridescent and resilient, Blood Youth have earned a legion of dedicated followers and have firmly established themselves as a frontrunner of modern metal.
Lyrics:
I pray you never feel the same
Never feel the same
Just wanna close my eyes for the very last time
What do we do with this anger inside?
Barely coping, never evolving
And I pray you never feel the sameAnd I pray you never feel the same
I pray you never feel the sameSet fire to the dreamers, they never fucking believe us
Truth to the word it’s only getting worse
Consume all the guilt I have
Welcome the new age of pain
Let me outThis is the new age of pain
Let me outThis is the new age of pain
Let me out of this casket
I’m not used to this madness I carry nothing but fear
Barely coping, never evolving
And I pray you never feel the sameAnd I pray you never feel the same
I pray you never feel the sameHe closed his eyes and he drifted away
I hope you feel the same way
Every single day
I know you’ll never be the sameJust wanna close my eyes
For the very last time
