Mehr InformationenAfter the success of their Vol.1EP, which featured singles “Dead Weight”and “Like A Drug”, and the recent release of “Forever’s Enough” off their upcoming Vol.2EP, “Under TheKnife” once again showcases how well songwriter/frontman Justin Benlolo uses all the tools in his arsenal to firmly position BRKN LOVE in the young, modern rock revolution.
Justin says,“‘Under The Knife‘ is our most daring single yet. This song takes everything that people have been familiar with before, injects it with a shot of adrenaline, makes it listen to its older brother’s hardcore records and kicks it into a high-speed chase down the highway at 155mph. Needless to say, it’s an absolute rager.
Lyrically, the song details a toxic relationship in which the people are actually enjoying the pain it brings them. The main character’s perspective is one I’ve never written from before. The character actively admits that the scrutiny and torture is something that is giving his life purpose, and throughout the song it results in him doing anything he can to continue this terrible situation. I felt like although this wasn’t a particularly happy subject, it was something different and relatable in many ways.
I hope you enjoy the song! Make sure you turn it up LOUD! Thank you.“
“Under The Knife” follows previous singles “Forevers Enough”,“Like A Drug” and “Deadweight” which BBC Radio One’s Indie Show presenter Jack Saunders called “The new age of rock and roll.” You can check out the latest here.
