Corrupted Hearts share single "We Dug A Ditch & Laid Down"
The Corrupted Hearts are an Alternative Rock Band out of Columbus, Ohio. Formally known as Inverso, the band is fronted by singer/guitarist Bradley Schultz. Rounding out the group are bassist Jeff Sionnach, guitarist Adam Harrington, and drummer Thom Chakra.
In 2022, Schultz set out to complete the album he had started in 2011 back in the Inverso days. Given the passage of time, Schultz needed to recruit new band members. The current lineup came to be after several personnel changes, which has helped The Corrupted Hearts find their sound.
Their 2022 album Smile With Your Eyes was recorded and produced by Schultz. It was mixed and mastered by Glenn Davis in Columbus, Ohio. They have plans to release their second full length album by the end of 2023, which will be entitled Long Winter Blues.
"We Dug A Ditch & Laid Down" will be on the upcoming LP.
Schultz says, "'We Dug A Ditch & Laid Down' is about how silly it is to be obsessed with success and being accepted when we come from the ground and we’re just going right back in the dirt."
He further elaborates, "I got the idea from my work. I literally dug deep trenches for a living. One day I dug a trench that was about 14 feet deep and decided to lay down in it. Looking up at the sky from deep underground is a weird feeling. It made me feel small and insignificant. Like I was just another piece of the earth. But I was at peace about it."
