letlive. reveal new track, ‘Another Offensive Song’

By Ben Tipple

Wondered whether letlive. still had that heavy side in them? ‘Another Offensive Song’ will answer that question once and for all. The track, which follows ‘Good Mourning America‘ and ‘Reluctantly Dead‘, sees them at their most ferocious. Even the melodic chorus is underpinned by relentless riffing, sandwiched between walls of screams that only give way for vocalist Jason Aalon Butler’s rallying cry.

Continuing the album’s social commentary, Butler tells Rolling Stone: “We can no longer be afraid ā€“ in a world where we can be shot in the back with unarmed hands up, a world where we must face ridicule if we identify or fall in love with the wrong gender and then must fight to reform mandated law in order to marry that person, or a world where we continue to let policies perpetuate the disenfranchisement of minority groups for fear of being accused of conspiracy or an ‘unrealistic and utopian liberal approach.’ People may read this and think of it as some overly righteous left leaning bullshit. That’s cool. This ain’t for you. This is a song for those that want to rid themselves of the aforementioned burdens. This is a song for those that want to be free.”

Head over to Rolling Stone to stream ‘Another Offensive Song’ ahead of the release of ‘If Iā€™m the Devil’, due on the 10th June.
