Modern rock’s unstoppable force Those Damn Crows have released new single “Wake Up (Sleepwalker)”, taken from their upcoming album ‘Inhale/Exhale’, out 17th February 2023 on Earache Records. A heavy-hitting tempest of a track that boasts the arena-filling sound of the likes of Alter Bridge or Shinedown, “Wake Up (Sleepwalker)” urges listeners to rouse from the slumber of modern society’s puppet strings. Frontman Shane Greenhall explains, “It’s meant to be upfront and personal. It’s supposed to make you sit up and think about how we are all living in today’s society, where the rich are getting richer, and where tech giants are moulding us into whatever and however THEY see fit via technology and social media. Get your heads out of your phones. Look up, WAKE UP!” The official video for “Wake Up (Sleepwalker)”, created by Shaun Hodson of Loki Films (Volbeat, Skindred, Architects) and David Provan of 12 Inch Media (Alice Cooper, Stereophonics, Alter Bridge), underlines this message. Shane elaborates, “When coming up with ideas on how to tell the story of ‘Wake Up’, I remembered the scene in ‘The Matrix’ where Neo and Morpheus were in between worlds and talking in the white rooms, similar to the scene in ‘Willy Wonka’ where they zap the little boy into the TV. In the video we are in between the two worlds, “The Real World” and “The Tech World”. We hack the system as our message is transmitted to interrupt the algorithms that cleverly influence us while being led by the corporate and tech giants, fuelled by greed and false news, via the portals that they use on us – our smartphones, TVs, tablets, billboards – anything with a screen.” Watch here or by clicking below. |
