TRACK OF THE WEEK 01/04/18 – WHO WE ARE – MEMORY

This weeks track of the week goes to Los Angeles Quartet Who We Are with their track ‘Memory’ from the forthcoming self-titled EP ‘Who We Are’!

In a collective statement, the band provides further explanation and information regarding the product’s essence: “This is a song trying to give people an inside look and a first-hand experience of what it’s like to be dying of cancer and watching someone you love die of cancer. The video depicts unnecessary conflicts in a household as wasted time of enjoying someone’s company that’s close to you. “Memory” also has a deeper meaning, such as the split that can happen between a family due to such dramatic news. Whether it’s lashing out, trying to cope or trying to distance yourself from the person who is terminal. The song is about one of the band’s members’ father, who is actually cast in the video. We wanted to show the struggle Nikko was going through with his dad’s illness and to also honor his dad. We are so pleased with the final product and hope it speaks to everyone. Ultimately, we just want to make great music that others enjoy.”

TRACK OF THE WEEK 11/03/18 – COVE – ALL I BELIEVE

This weeks track of the week goes to Kent quintet Cove with their new track ‘All I Believe’

Guitarist Pete Woolven commented: ‘It’s a song that deals with being lost, having everything you stand for fall around you and not being able to relate or connect, whilst desperately holding on to anything that gives a sense of purpose or a reason to carry on.”

Discussing the track within the context of the EP Woolven adds: “With all of the songs on “A Conscious Motion” we really wanted to explore different dynamics and push them in ways we hadn’t used before, which influenced parts like the haunting first verse of the song. This section is probably one of our favourite parts on the EP and makes the heavy choruses sound huge.”

Cove’s new EP, ‘A Conscious Motion’ is released on March 23rd. The band will be following up the release with a UK tour. You can check out dates below!
