Listen to new single:
The music video, a perfect complement to the song, was shot and directed by Mike Holderbeast at the Joy Theatre in the heart of New Orleans. Mike was eager to hop on the opportunity and shares, “I’ve known Kirk and Todd for many years and have worked with them on projects for Crowbar and Down. I’ve been a huge Type-O Negative fan for years, so it was killer to work with Kenny and Johnny for the first time.”
Mike adds, “We shot at the Joy Theatre in the heart of New Orleans. A lot of bands have played there because it’s got cool vibes. The shoot went super smoothly, and it was a great experience, definitely one of the most fun videos I’ve shot. And for being a new project, the sound was incredibly organic and natural. You’d have thought these guys have been together for years!”
“Dreams Always Die With The Sun” is an original, organic song steeped in the hard rock heavy metal genre fueled by vocal, guitar-driven rock melody and harmonies. The song takes influence from the Beatles to Black Sabbath. Kenny Hickey had a melody in his head to start with and when the band came together it was easy to write lyrics to the song.
Kenny Hickey says the meaning behind the song, “The lyrics question the existence of an afterlife. Delusion is always shattered by reality.”
The songwriting partnership of Kenny Hickey and Kirk Windstein is especially powerful, as it combines the two powerhouses behind Type-O Negative, Crowbar, Down, Silvertomb, and more. The single was recorded in February and March 2023 with Less Than Jake‘s Roger Lima at his studio, The Moat House Recording Studio and mixed and mastered by Jay Ruston, with more recording sessions scheduled and plans to tour in 2024.
