Black Honey have released their immense new single ‘Run For Cover’ which struts with their signature style & effortless charisma. 

‘Run For Cover’ is Black Honey’s 2nd single of 2020 with stunning single ‘Beaches’ released earlier this year. Since Black Honey formed in 2014 they have been a key figure of rock music in the UK underground scene and with the new releases they will be looking to continue attracting new fans. Since Black Honey’s debut album in 2018 the band seem to going through a transition in sound,  anew phase for the band & with releases like ‘Run For Cover’ the band will have never but success. 

On the writing of Run For Cover Izzy B Phillips says ‘Run For Cover is about the nuances in sex. It’s fun but on a bit of a knife edge of risk and weird. Sex can be clumsy, emotional and complex’. The song writing is very honest and it’s also very clever with the lyrics wrote in a male perspective but it’s very much a song which women can find empowering because it is perfectly made for women to find themselves & be free. As for the sound of the song the soft vocals brought together with manic garage rock make this a great combination. The sound very much feature Black Honey’s signature style but also has a more developed & mature sound which fans will love. 

‘Run For Cover’ is a fantastic song which is also equally exciting as we now see Black Honey go through a new phase which will be the making of this great band.
