What’s the song about? Living in a free world under constant surveillance.

How long did it take to write/record? The earliest demos appeared in May 2013, since then it stayed in a constant state of change until a mere two days before we released it.

Is this track from a forthcoming release/existing release? Oh yes, this song is indeed a part of a larger project that we have yet to name, but so far we’ll call it “Debut Album”.

What was inspiring you during the song’s writing and recording? Randy Crawford – One Day I’ll Fly Away.

We’ll like this song if we like... Oceansize, Deftones, Soundgarden, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, The Butterfly Effect, Sunk Loto, Karnivool, Whitesnake, Twelve Foot Ninja, The Getaway Plan.

Do you play it differently live? We play it much louder and with more heavy breathing.

When and where is your launch/next gig? New Globe Theatre, 1 Nov.
