The Amazons - 'Living A Lie'
Heavy-hitters The Amazons make their highly anticipated return with the emphatic ‘Living A Lie’, a single that is sure to stun listeners.
The Reading outfit have soared to huge heights as a result of their impeccable talent, as well as their capability to muster up some of the best live shows around. Their collection of albums to their name is seriously formidable, and fans will be ecstatic that the group have returned with the new single.
‘Living A Lie’ is the perfect way for the group to bridge the gap between their previous record, ‘How Will I Know If Heaven Will Find Me?’ and whatever lies in store for listeners.
The sound of the latest material is sure to stun all those who hear it. This track is stratospheric, captivating and full of swagger.
Right from its eerie introduction, where a violin and solitary female voice bring the track into orbit, ‘Living A Lie’ utilises each fleeting moment to arouse emotion from all angles.
The track becomes a bass-driven, thunderous affair that is full of suspense and real mystery. With this mystery comes an undeniable coolness, a swagger that reminds listeners- instantly- who they’re dealing with. It’s The Amazons.
Lead vocals of Matt Thomson transcend the stunning musical piece. The band are no newcomers to the game, and this is evidenced by the way they effortlessly work together to make the voice of Thomson so striking and powerful.
Fully-loaded guitar riffs come courtesy of Chris Alderton, who works his fuzzy magic with bassist Elliot Briggs to create a tone that’s thick, fuzzy, and enough to send crowds crazy.
The track feels to be a real statement of intent from the Reading three-piece. Sounding like it’s charged up and ready for arenas, The Amazons could well be about to take the world by storm.
Keep your eyes firmly fixed on the group, you won’t want to miss what The Amazons do next. If ‘Living A Lie’ is anything to go by, we could be in for a real treat going forward…
