PARKWAY DRIVE have issued a track-by-track feature for their new album “Atlas” over at this location.
“Atlas”
This song took two years to finish. It was the first song we started, and it wasn’t completed until the last day in the studio. We knew it was a departure of sorts from the sounds we usually make, but at the same time, it contains everything we love about this band, just in different forms and ways of playing. Watching the strings being played was insane. The lyrics were written before the music was formed. It is a song about the effects of touring on my life. I don’t like complaining, but it is damn hard to place the entire world between yourself and the person you love, and to feel the love of thousands of people only to have the one person that matters most to you be the one you must leave behind.
